 DEAR DR. MCCARTHY,
 
      IREAD A COPY OF THE PROPOSAL FOR A TIMESHARING COOP,
 AND IT SOUNDS VERY INTERESTING TO ME.  THEREFORE I WOULD
 
 BE WILLING TO AND INTERESTED IN TALKING ABOUT IT WITH
 OTHER PEOPLE, AND IN HELPING TO SET IT UP.
 
      I AM AN UNDERGRAD AT STANFORD, AND HAVE A FAIRLY EXTENSIVE BACKGROUND

 There are two positive contributions by
 Don Gennery.  As a course project, he made
 a search for calibration solution that was
 successful, where Hannah had been unsuccessful
 before.  At SRI, he made a horizontal 
 rectangle bounder; JMT's opinion is that he
 did a good job.  That he had good ideas, was
 competent and a good executor, hard worker.
 Along the lines of Perkins, not a deep thinker
 but reasonable and competent.
 There is of course the negative information
 about not working his first year here.
 Tom

 Subject: Change of time or place of meeting. 
 
 I've just  discovered that  the conference  room at  SU-AI is  booked
 every monday between  4:15 and 5:15. Thus either the time or place of
 the next meeting of  the program reasoning  group must be changed.  I
 propose that it be moved to tuesday  18 feb. (the day after it was to
 be).  Please let me know if  this is O.K. If  it isn't maybe we could
 still have the meeting on monday but at SRI or PARC? 
 
 I'll confirm the new time and place in a day or so. 
 
 Sorry about this. Mike

 Subject: Future meetings of Program Reasoning Group. 
 
 The next meeting is  in the conference room at Stanford  A.I. Lab. at
 3.30  p.m.  on mon.  17 feb. Balint Domolki  (who's visiting the  A.I.
 Lab. from Hungary) will talk. 
 
 The meeting following that will be at Xerox PARC at 3.30 p.m. on mon.
 3 march.  Richard Waldinger will talk. 
 
 The debate described in previous  messages (which was conceived of by
 Bob.  Boyer)  is  to be  organanised  by  Richard  Waldinger. Further
 suggestions concerning it should be sent to Richard at SRI. 
 
 Sorry about the  vast list of names  that non-SU-AI people have  been
 getting at  the top of  previous messages -  I had no  idea they were
 appearing!  I hope I've now found the right hack to suppress them. 
 
 If you would  like to  stop getting these  messages, or  if you  know
 someone who'd like to start getting them, please let me know. 
 
 Mike

 John,
 Would you have some time to talk with me tomorrow? I saw you when
 I came in tonight but you looked tied up, then you disappeared!
 
 I plan to be here most of tomorrow, so if you have some free
 time would you please let me know.
 
 Thanks, Peggy

 	John, I do not know him well enough to be helpful.
 He seemed bright and interesting when he was here for a short visit,
 but I did not get enough of a fix on him to be sure whether I'd
 want to hire him, myself, or urge you to keep him
 hired.
 
 	My consideration of your proposal was interrupted by
 paperwork requirements levied by the new Director and by
 the need to get out several Memos Requesting ARPA Orders before
 COB today.  I'll get back at it shortly.  I'll have to ask for
 considerable sharpening of the objective structure; it now reads
 as though there are a lot of miscellaneous objectives to be reached
 in a year or two, but that it is not clear what roads they are on,
 what major goals they are subordinate to.  Also, I'll have to ask for
 a major reconsideration of the equipment section, which sounds as though
 it is heading for another ideosyncratic system.  (I have an idea
 about how to handle that, but I can't describe it now.)  Sorry to 
 have to noodle about on the proposal.  Al Blue got us an extension
 to cover the time required for noodling without losing the money.
 But we'll have to work pretty fast.  I assume I should communicate
 with LES -- with carbons to you?
 
 				Regards
 
 				Lick
