051103 - He said Doug Ballon is leaving Raychem in two weeks, as a result of
051104 - reengineering at Raychem which has eliminated his Department of
051105 - Projects, as reported at the PMI meeting on 960117. ref SDS 2 3002
051106 - John explained this happened very quickly, and with little evident
051107 - awareness of the department's success, which is the usual mode of

051109 -
051110 - Doug has not mentioned being contacted by PMI about speaking at

051113 - John would like to attend Asilomar but has another matter scheduled
051114 - for 960712.
051115 -

051117 - to look for a new assignment in the Bay Area or in Portland where is
051118 - home is located.

051131 -
051132 -     I asked how the ideas correlate with the explanation of poetry in
051133 -     the New World Order paper which he reviewed last year? John could
051134 -     not recall that analysis.  I suggested he read the paper again
051135 -     and let me know of how the ideas in the NWO paper compare,
051136 -     support or conflict with his impressions from "Heart Aroused."
