While waiting for the Plenary talk by Paul Chirik from Cornell University, Rich says, "You see, there's this big round hole..." Pat and Tapan don't believe it. It has got to be square. Dr. Burmeister and Andrea are more interested in the camera. Dan is doing his home work and listening to something else. |
