Dear Michelle, We have submitted a MRAC proposal for continuing our work at NCSA, which has started so successfully with Steve Clayton. Alas, we were not treated so well by the referees and I am preparing a reply to ask for a better allocation. Craig has helped us a lot in discussing technical issues. He has all the info, including the referee reports. Attached I send you our original proposal and my late night draft for the reply. I have been out of the country at the experiment a lot. I don't want to ask for too much time from you to get into this matter, you have already helped and advised us quite a bit in the past. So I would just ask you to read the reply, which should be largely self explanatory. Several key issues depend on staging and I/O to the MSS, and we would aks for your expert advice. Needless to say, tactical comments are welcome as well. I could call you tomorrow or visit you in the afternoon or on Monday (we should submit on Monday). In any case, many thanks for your efforts and best regards Peter Peter Kammel / pkammel@uiuc.edu Department of Physics, Loomis Laboratory University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign 1110 West Green Street, Urbana, IL 61801 Tel (217) 333-5424 / Fax (217) 333-1215
