That is super great!
We really look forward to his attendance for the Symposium event at
MIT.
The Oct 28th dinner could be last-minute decision on his part, he will always be
welcome. Of course we'd love to know as early as possible. It should
be a very stimulating evening.

likely be at a private home in Catnrbridge/Brookline.

HI MIM..Jeffrey has said YES to this...I am not sure if he will
attend the pm-dinner on Oct. 28th (will try to find out...but it may
not be until closer to the date-when do you need to know by?) But I
will for sure put the pre-dinner and the event on Oct. 29th on
Jeffrey's calendar. Thanks,
