Dear Mr. Segami:
Thanks for your letter of March 30. All the materials you mention
arrived in good order.
My home address is now changed to 885 Allardice Way,
Stanford, California 94305. The award was helpful in
making that change.
My friends have been very congratulatory about the Kyoto Prize.
I still think that you have not been very successful in publicizing
the award. It seems to me that you need to send advance publicity
to {\it Science}, {\it Nature}, the {\it New York Times}, the
{\it Washington Post} and other major newspapers. Followups should
occur when the awards are announced and just before the actual
ceremonies. Maybe a public relations firm would be helpful.
Such a major award should naturally get better attention.
If there is any way I can help in publicizing the next awards, I
will be glad to do so.
\closing
Sincerely,
John McCarthy
