TitleLetter from Thomas Gold to Dr Stirling Colgate, Department of Physics, Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory, Los Alamos, New Mexico
Date19 March 1979
DescriptionThanks Colgate for setting things up for him in such a magnificent fashion. It was a delightful trip for him and he hopes it will cause some reverberations.

Is enclosing the papers needed for the office work. Presumably they will send him a form to sign.

He is enclosing a few items that they discussed and that may interest Colgate.

Post script;
Gold did not write down the name and address of the lady who works in micro-biology and who may do an experiment on methane conversion to oil and coal; Gold ought to keep in touch with her and encourage her to do it. Gold has now found a reference to a methane-sulfate microbe and that is very promising.
