Hi Ron,

The Meer talk, which many will want to listen to, is at 2 pm EST.  I met John at the Cambridge Arctic Repair conference in June, and would love to follow up with some questions.  Could you possibly start half an hour earlier?

(In moving house I mislaid my notes from the conference, so I haven't been able to follow anything up 😕)

Cheers, John

Sorry John (and my apologies to MEER for this as I did not realize it would conflict), but the time was set long ago with John M and me, and sent out publicly  as well, so we (speaking for myself anyway - I’m in FL and have commitments this afternoon) really can’t change it.

Best,

Ron

Hi Robert, 

I have already pointed this out.  It is very unfortunate nothing was done either to move John Moore earlier or the MEER talk later, since polar climate intervention and refreezing the Arctic could not be facing more serious opposition as the result of DJT, and an hour may not be enough to discuss the matter.

However we could continue this matter next week if I called a PRAG meeting at some time to suit Soumitra: India could be a key player when the US government is in denial of the crisis and wants to exploit a near-ice-free Arctic.

Regards, John

Dear John, 

With all due respect the initial notice of the meeting at 1:00 pm was sent out Monday 1/5 four days ago and no one got back to me (until you a couple hours ago) about the MEER conflict, so I'm not the only one who didn't realize this until much too late!

Best,

Ron
