National Research Council appearance w/ Vernor Vinge, Monday Aug 3rd

Sunday, August 2nd, 2009

Along with Vernor Vinge (!), I’ll be presenting on Forecasting Future Disruptive Technologies in downtown D.C. at 1 p.m. at the National Research Council/Air Force Studies Board (The whole day looks to be very interesting; I gather Vernor and I each have 15 minutes, and then there’ll be a half hour of discussion.  As to the address:

Keck Center, National Academies
500 5th Street, NW
Washington D.C. 20001

Did I mention that BURNING SKIES is available on Amazon and all sorts of other cool places?

Happy birthday
