Dear Professor McCarthy,

It is nice that you and Carolyn will be coming to Japan.  I and
Professor Ito will welcome you in Sendai.

The number you tried [22 227-6200 x2628] is correct, but I was in
Kyoto for a week and could not answer the phone.  You can also try my
home phone which is 22 267-2890.  On weekdays I will be in my office
from  10am to 7pm.  If you could call my home between 8am and 9:30am
(that is between 3pm and 4:30pm in your time), you would be able to
catch me for sure.  I will also try to call you.

** masahiko **

P.S.  My best email address is MS@SAIL.  (sato@russell works but it is
not so reliable.)

Dear John and Carolyn,

(1)  I talked to Mr. Arima at ICOT about your visit.  He is interested
in circumscription, and he is hoping to have a meeting at ICOT on
April 7 (if possible).  His plan for the day is (i) to have a
discussion with you and (ii) to hear your lecture on common sense
knowldge.  A small group of people interested in the foundation of AI
will come to the meeting.

(2)  I talked to Dr. Nori Suzuki of IBM Japan.  He is the director of
Tokyo Research Center, and he says that he would like to have your
visit to the Research Center anytime after April 4.

(3)  Shigeki Goto and Ikuo Takeuti are wishing to have your visit to
NTT's Musashino Laboratory.

Please let me hear your opinion about these possible plans.

Subject: Your visit

I talked to Professor Goto, and he said he was looking forward to your
visit.  Please contact him when you arrived in Kyoto.  His telephone
numbers are: 03-812-2111 ext. 4113 (Tokyo Univ.) and 03-828-3794 (a
research institute for Josephson computer).

Professor Ito is wishing to organize a lecture by you for faculty
members and students of Tohoku University.  The lecture will be hosted
by the Faculty of Engineering, and we would like to have it on April
10 if possible.

Iwanami Shoten (one of the best publisher in Japan) is asking if it
would be possible to tape-record your lecture and publish the
translation in one of their scientific magazines.

Moreover, it would be nice if you could give a talk whose title would be
something like: "Lisp and AI".  Your contributions to Lisp and AI are so
great that it will be a great opportunity for the audience of your lecture
(and also for the readers of the recorded lecture).  An informal and
non-technical talk will be welcome.  I would like to hear about
history of Lisp, your opinion on Common Lisp, Lisp machine, concurrent
or parallel Lisp etc.  (Well, there are so many things to talk on Lisp
alone.)

Please let me know:

	(1) if you would accept to give a talk and
	(2) if you would permit to publish your talk.

If your answer is positive, please also let me know the title of your
talk.  If you must work hard to prepare the talk, then please don't
hesitate to say no.

John,

Thanks for arranging a seminar for Mr. Hibino.  Today, I called Tak
and knew that you would visit ECL.  It's a great fun of us.  I would
like to suggest you that you would visit Riken (The Institute of
Physical and Chemical Research) to meet Dr. Sasaki to discuss on
parallel algorithm on Symbolic Manipulation.  As you know, he is the
most active researchers in Symbolic Algebra in Japan and he developed
a BIGNUM package for REDUCE system when he stayed at Univ. of Utah.  I
knew the name of Broebner basis by his papers.  If necessary, I would
arrange your visit to Riken.  More precisely, I'll ask Tak to arrange
it.

Have a nice trip,

- Gitchang -
