I have sent out the supporting materials as you requested. The materials were packed on the moving van and just became accessible. I have two postdoctoral students with me who will begin serious work the end of August. My GT40 made the trip ok and is operational except I don't have a modem for it. Incidentally there is already a prospective Congen user here at UCSC working in marine natural products indentifica- tion. I look forward to beginning work in my new environment and in hearing from the committee on my proposal to SUMEX. My family and I are all very pleased with our new location and my new institution. Sincerely, W. Todd Wipke Associate Professor of Chemistry WIW:ah
