we have on paper."

That is super great!
We really look forward to his attendance for the Symposium event at MIT.
The Oct 28th dinner could be last-minute decision on his part, he will always be welcome. Of course
love to know as early as possible. It should be a very stimulating evening.
I will get the venue for the dinner to you as soon as it is decided. The dinnerwill likely be at a private home
in Camrbridge/Brookline.
