[FRIAM] Oh, Gawd!

[Merle Lefkoff]

If someone can find the Way Back Machine and recovers Nick's valuable web
site, I would very much like to know about that.  My Center is partners
with a Swedish team working on a project with the Dalai Lama in Dharmsala
called "Timeless Knowledge."  I'm interested in appropriate technologies in
addition to systems science  that I can bring to this project before I go
to India.  At the very least--what a great metaphor!!
