Subject: do you drink coffee? or hike?

hi there it was very interesting to talk last week seriously you genuinely had different things to say than most others I'd talked to and i enjoyed it.

perhaps however i should have defended physics a little more. it is more difficult to convey the excitement of some of what we do and it is true we are working the edges more but sometimes those edges can open up whole new worlds-literally and of thought.

as for the new fields below i can see how they can make for exciting discussions and why one would want to be an intellectual tourist for them. the subjects are more accessible but in many cases harder to pin down-both the goals and the key new developments. but they clearly will make for some fascinating back and forth and it sounds pretty funr. btw i find the interchangeability of aspects and participants of 3 and 4 noteworthy.

## Hi Jeffrey

v Thanks for the advice. Good talking to you. v > Two things I should have asked: what do you think of Harvard's financial situation and how long before they are out of it? > Where will physics be? I sense it's not such a priority now. > Second, I do want to follow up on the bad physicist thing. I let you slip out nicely but really -where is that coming from? I have a pretty solid track record-can't be my collaborator every time- > First more relevant I guess but second could be relevant if I'm isolated and need to attract people or resources. So let me know if you have another minute free-Lisa
