Re: Millennium Evening
in October
If you are still thinking about using a futurist to set the stage for the
evening, then you might consider talking with William Halal, at GWU, and
with Joe Coates, who runs Coates&Jarratt
(also here in DC) .
There are at least a couple of writers, Stephen Jay Gould (natural
history) and Ray Kurzweil (thinking machines), who are visionary and
explain"very complex technical issues beautifully in their prose who I've
also heard are eloquent speakers (but I haven't heard them).
If Ellen wants to talk to PCAST members about the interesting research
questions still to be answered in the 21st century, I recommend Chuck Vest
(President of MIT), who has written an article about the important
questions we still don't know how to answer, and Murray Gell-Mann (Santa
Fe Institute), a Nobel Prize winner who loves language (he wrote a book
called the Quark and the Jaguar) and lofty thoughts about the future of
S&T.
Let me know if you need additional
information.

Evening

Holly,
thank you for getting back to me.
Ellen wanted me to get in touch
with you about the millennium evenign idea.
I know you were involved in a
preliminary discussion about the topic -- they are now honing in on the
focus of the evening and exploring ideas for speakers.
We are doing a
round of outreach calls to get ideas -- Ellen wants to present the more
finalized topic and program for the evening to the First Lady next week.
If you did have any additional thoughts you wanted to share or speaker
ideas, please do let either me or Ellen know directly.
Sarah Howes is
also going to be doing a lot of the research for the evening.
Thanks for
your help.

Ellen and Sarah,
As we discussed on Friday, there are several people that have been
extremely helpful on the October Millennium Evening research thus far that
we should make sure to include on the invite list because of their
expertise.
(One or two may even be great as 'scripted pop-ups').
I have
passed along the bios of most of these people to you Sarah, and when you
have the chance please provide the background information required for the
invite list.
I apologize, ,but am trying to get much wrapped-up right now
and wanted you all to at least have the names:
1. Francis Collins, NIH (if not one of the main speakers)
2. Kathy Hudson, NIH.
Did much to assist me on the early Genome Research
proposals and is Collins' right hand.
3. Maxine Singer, President of the Carnegie Institute and Scientist
Emeritus at the NIH, where she retains her laboratory and research work.
One of the most accomplished woman scientists in the country ...see amazing
bio.
Recently awarded the Vannevar Bush award from the National Science
Foundation, one of the top prizes awarded in science. She has previously
won the Distinguished Presidential Rank Award and the National Medal of
Science.
4. Elmer Johnson, President of the Aspen Institute, leading thinker on
technology and the future.
Martin Marty recommended I speak with him.
As
I reviewed with you, we had a great conversation ....he would be an
excellent addition to the audience.
5. David Singer, President and CEO of GeneSoft, Inc,
a new company that
is developing the technology to allow medicine to affect proteins through
DNA, before the onset of disease.
Prior to starting this company Mr.
Singer was the co-founder, President and CEO of Affymetrix, which is now
one of the leading companies that developed the technology for making and
reading DNA chips.
He is 36 years old and a devoted Democrat; he is also
Maxine Singer's son!
Please consider these names carefully, they would all be great additions
to the audience, if not part of the program.
Would be happy to p~ovide
additional info later if necessary.
Thanks,
Leela

[Honor the Past;
Imagine
the Future?]
If we pick up any magazine or a newspaper these days, these are the kinds
of
headlines we find:
"Twins:
Unlocking the Secret of Identity" (Psychology
Today).
"How the Wireless World will Change Your Life" (Newsweek). "DNA
Mapping:
Light at the End of the Tunnel" (Time).
We are on the brink of discoveries that are astonishing in their
complexity
and their, implications
for human life
in the next decades.
But -they
didn't
happen overnight.
These revolutions have been driven by our American
quest
for knowledge, 'innovation,
-and science
- and the willingness
of the public
and private sectors to invest in them.
More than 200 years ago, before we
even had a Bill of Rights, our second President, John Adams create the
American' Academy of Arts and Sciences to, in their words "cultivate every
art
and science, which may tend to advance the interests, honor, dignity and
happiness of a free, independent, and virtuous people."
That is what drove us to create the Internet or find the three billion
letters of genetic instructions to the human body.
And it must still

We must be willing to invest in increasing the storehouse of
us today.
knowledge, regardless of whether we can see its commercial potential.
[After
all, when Vince Cerf and Robert Kahn found a way for computers to talk to
one
another, they certainly didn't imagine E-bay or Amazon.Com.]
Even in the face of these great breakthroughs,
there are many who rightly
worry that our science is developing faster than our ability to understand
its implications.
Because behind each of the headlines we read, we find
not
only great possibilities,
but also profound ethical questions that we must
answer together: As we gather more information - whether it is commercial
transactions posted on the Internet, or genetic information collected by
"doctors - who owns that information?
How will we protect our privacy? How
will we make sure that our genes are used to heal us, not deny us health
insurance or jobs?
What does justice and equality mean in an electronic
world?

Jeff,
The very beginning of the proposed speech for the First Lady contains the
phrase:
"You can check on your children through videos sent over the
Internet."
Unfortunately,
when previously evoked, this image has raised a number of
controversial issues concerning:
1. privacy -- i.e. whether others captured in these videos have given
their consent to be monitored
2. safety and security -- videos transmitted over the Internet could be
captured by others, perhaps endangering the safety of the chiid
Here are some alternative phrases that could be used'that
intent, but be less subject to controversy:
