<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;">Dear Chandra,<br>
<br>
I, like Martin,  am looking forwards very much to the discussion and to the conference and have booked flights and  a hotel already.
<br>
<br>
I think we may be missing a trick here though. As, primarily, an engineer and given that many of our group and many of the folk in the wider conference will be engineers, I think we should consider talking about the engineering consequences of the notion that
 material particles may be constituted by oscillating photons, oscillating "vacuum" or "something different". What does this mean, potentially, for the development of new kinds of materials, the engineering of new kinds of devices and the possible interaction
 with the underlying structure of space and time for new propulsion systems or energy sources. I think if we include and advertise that we will get a better participation rate from the rest of the conference.
<br>
<br>
What does everyone think?<br>
<br>
Regards, John W.<br>
