Dear Prof. Rzepa and potential participants,

I propose that a 'larger scale' experiment be run at a ACS symposia.
I was *volunteered* to help organize a "Chemistry on the Infobahn"
Symposia for the Computers and Chemistry Division of the American 
Chemical Society. My hope is that much of this can be electronic.
The symposia is scheduled for Fall 1995 (Aug 27th-Sept 1.) and
will physically be in Chicago, Illnois USA. 

This is too long from now for a "prototype test", but it is 
soon enough to plan for a larger implementation.

If Prof. Rzepa is willing, perhaps we could jointly make this work?
