cc: berkhout date: Sun Jun 24 12:38:09 2001 from: Mike Hulme subject: RE: Sceptics to: Thamotheram Raj Raj, Here are my thoughts on the matters you raised. Let me know what you think. I am in the office Monday, but travelling all week after that. Mike At 13:43 21/06/01 +0100, you wrote: Thanks Mike. My reason for asking was to create a brief for Tim, Frans and you. On reflection, perhaps a better way to get to this might be to ask you to: 1. Let me know the headlines of what you plan to say in your 4-5 min intro - you will have access to OHPs, not PowerPoint. I am asking the same of Frans. 2. And any ideas about how you think we might structure the remaining 30 min discussion. Specifically, I would like Tim to play the role of the informed critic - what would such a person want to challenge you and Frans on? Would that be possible? If yes, can we say by next Wednesday?
