Moore Fish

Moore Fish by jurvetson.
Salmon fishing with Gordon Moore near Mavericks. Still searching for Moore's Law of fishing....

The closest contender (as he was holding my wife's fish): "In my experience the women always seem to catch the biggest, the most unusual or, in some way or other, the most special fish."

I think this Fish Law is demonsterably true. My Gramma caught the most absurdly sized fish off of their dock on Puget Sound all the time. Must find pics....

Shaun: thanks for the DVD. Very, very cool.

Alieness: Omega3.... the post-Pentium brand.

Looking to the future again, Moore recently made a sizable donation to Caltech to “establish the Nanoscale Systems Initiative (NSI). The grant will support one of the scientific and technological community's promising research avenues--the creation of extremely tiny devices to augment and in some cases displace the state-of-the-art electronic systems of today.” (press release)

You convinced him about donating to the nano cause that day because he was very happy with his fish and didn´t mind a thing...!!!! ;)

Seriously, it is a great thing. How do you see this event: Does it still belong to the 'Moore´s Law Age'... or it better belongs to the first moments of that next age you describe and envision in your "Transcending Moore´s Law" text? Both? Or may it be declared in retrospective as one breaking point in the paradigm shift of electronic systems?

You know how the song goes: if Gordon does this, many will happily follow. If Gordon says: 'Go Nano', the world will say 'we will'.

Jesus, if he said something and became a Law! Ey... uhmmm... I´d love going fishing with such a person.

Btw, as I am very chatty today (trying to keep the high spirits against the odds) Intel had announced a huge investment in Argentina a couple of months ago. I was happy for that. But yesterday the minister of economy, Mr Lavagna, (storm pilot since 2002) resigned... and this has not been well received in the States (neither here). I fear that important investments like that one would be freezed, due to a new uncertain political context.

Remember that bugs bunny cartoon in which he is hanging from moon and screams to a handy (connected to NASA) "Get me out of hereeeeeeeee" =(

There are a few. If you are so very curious, it can be a scavenger hunt for you. =)

She has the final filter of photos of her and our children, and she lets me post very few of her.

I respect that VERY much. :-) Since you're a reasonably public individual its good to have a private side.
