I missed the lecture last night because I was sick in bed, and the
John Anderson et al lecture/ralley this noon because I had an
appointment elsewhere at noon, but I made it to Les Aspin lecture
tonite.  I didn't see one face I recognized in the whole crowd.
It would be interesting if anybody else on this list was there
(whom I don't know by sight yet).  I wasn't much impressed by his
lecture and answers to questions.  He seemed to be more politiking
than really answering questions.  When mathematics didn't work out
his way, when his way would have predicted a discrepancy of a factor
of 2 or more in GNP, he did a handwave of "well, it's close" and in
reply got grumblings that being off in GNP by a factor of 2 isn't
close at all.  Oh well....
