1) The Congress asked for an independent assessment of the impact threat from Harvard, out of both Weiler and Morrison's influence, due late this year.

2) WISE is being looked at for detection of dead comet fragments. If this is done, the first resultss may be startling to many.

3) The proposal for the launch of a dedicated Infra-red detection telescope is moving forward rapidly.

Morrison was doing fine until he got sidetracked by Muller's hypoothesis, but his methods of suppressing Clube and Nepier's work and the work of many field researchers were hardly scientific.

5) Weiler's participation in the impact disaster test drill is unknown.
