Alan and I worked briefly together at Apple. We were interested in
forming a research group there, based on an Alto-like computer we
called the Big Mac: Postscript graphics, Unix kernel, Ethernet. 1984-
ish. It was the carpet bagger period after the initial success and
most of us left within the year, Jobs pretty soon there after. Bleak
period.

Hi, everybody,
I have invited Bill Laurizen to join us tomorrow morning, who, on
his own account, is interested "in complexity and universal
selection theory, commercial applications of complexity theory,
etc., etc." He also wonders if any of us know Alan Kay ?
He is also the author of a book on the origins of religion, http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002FB650G
.
I look forward to seeing you all,
Nick
