SOHO Daily Meeting Minutes for Friday, 03 November 2000 Chaired by: J. Hollis (SOC) DOY: 308 ANNOUNCEMENTS ------------- * From Paal Brekke: Please mention at the meeting that I am very greatful to Ron Mahmot and Ed Nace and the FOT members for setting up the exhibit downtown last night. From the Science Attache at the Danish Embassy: " If you have any opportunity whatsoever, please convey to all involved in the production of the Solarmax film that it was absolutely overwhelmingly splendid. A brilliant tour de force of the science, the history, cultural aspects, beauty and extreme forces. Brilliant. We could have sat there looking at it for hours more.
