Rcd. the 4 corrected "maps" for STARLORD that Phil sent
me yesterday, together with a note from Lee Elmendorf.

To Simulations. Gave Al Nofi the "Manhole Cover" Jigsaw Puzzle. Spoke
to Jim Dunnigan in general. To Redmund and the end of the
month will be o.k. for my column but he'd prefer it sooner.
Spoke to his assistant, Mannie, who loves ACQUIRE.
Beth had a letter concerning a book and one chapter and
a sample simulation. She gave me the manuscript
and a copy of the letter. The name of the book is
HANDBOOK OF WRITTEN SIMULATIONS - THEIR CONSTRUCTION AND ANALYSIS.
The sample given is called THE TRAVELLER PROBLEM.
Al Nofi said he would help me find the battle field maps I
need for PATTON when I get around to it.

To Felicia. She was fairly happy with the 3M results. IMAGE did
well, selling more than ACQUIRE, but the royalty rate is 3%.
I asked her if she had heard from Odette Willis. No. She tried
calling but no answer.
