Actually, its on page B3.
In the New York City edition (versus the National edition), it does
appear on page B6. Sorry for the confusion.

Yes. And a taped version and a video tape will be made. No definite
plans exist for releasing the video tape of the talk, but an audio

Also, I'll be releasing the URL to the web site that Ray Holt put up to
disseminate information about the F14 Central Air Data Computer on this
list tomorrow. You guys will be getting this before the rest of the
world.
It has pictures of the chip masks, technical data, a more recent paper
Holt wrote to put this technology in perspective, and some other data.
