We were invited to attend the the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) luncheon! We organized a whole day of activities. A group of us attended the AAAS activities in the morning and then spent the afternoon at the Franklin Institute. We had the great opportunity to listen to President Clinton address the AAAS. The speech was great, and, having experienced it first hand, everyone of us came away with a better appreciation for what is involved in this type of effort. It took a good part of the morning just to get everyone in the room and passing through all kinds of surveillance equipment. In the afternoon we visited the Franklin Institute. We saw a good portion of their special exhibit on the forces of nature. We also saw one of their feature Omni Theater films about the making of roller coasters.
