-s K'f 'Iff\\ \\ V Dear Mr. Penxas Thank you for your letter of August 6.
If you have discovend an answer to the pmblem of thermal effects from powerplants, that is indeed significant.
Before SCIENCE NW S could mport on it, we would have to have more details--if not pacise design details at least some in-dication of the principles of its operation.
Thank you again for writing.
