Dave,
as you know, next Tuesday is the 40th anniversary of Doug Engelbart's  
1968 demo.

There will be two events to celebrate - one at the Tech Museum of  
Innovation San José and one by SRI at Stanford. I hope many IPer's can  
join us!

Please consider the environment - do not print this e-mail unless  
absolutely necessary! Also, we recommend that you never use your  
computer monitor at more than 60% brightness to save electricity  
(unless you are working in a very bright environment, in which case  
you should turn down the office lights or draw the blinds on your  
windows). Please also turn down your heating and put on a sweater or  
turn down the air conditioning and take off your jacket, as the case  
may be. Traveling to and from work by public transportation (or  
walking or cycling depending on distance and circumstance) has been  
shown to significantly reduce the modern office worker's carbon  
footprint, as does becoming a vegetarian. Wasting company time by  
reading this email signature may force the company to hire more people  
and therefore double the carbon footprint your job should have taken  
(plus it will make the company generally more uncompetitive and hence  
more wasteful) so do not read this message.
