TitleLettter from Thomas Gold to Professor Geoffrey Burbidge, Department of Physics, Revelle College, PO Box 109, University of California, La Jolla, California
Date17 February 1975
DescriptionStates he will certainly try to attend the "Frontiers". He would like to give a paper on "Cosmology" as he suggests, and will include in this some general wisdom as well as some recollections of earlier times.

He does not yet know how to fund the travel, since this will have to be an entirely separate trip; but perhaps a way will turn up.

Asks if he will see him in La Jolla on March 8, when Gold will talk to Walter Munk about tides. He doesn't know if this subject interests Burbidge or any of his colleagues there, but what he has to say represents one more gigantic error in the Earth.
