Maybe I am not the one to talk about this - but there is a Grand Challenges
project at the OSC which involves researchers from around the state and
around the country.  IBM has loaned OSC a Power Visualization System (PVS)
which seems aptly suited for moderately parallel computing.  Dave Heisterberg
of OSC, with help from persons at IBM (I don't know names so I can't give
credit) have ported HONDO 8 to this platform.  I understand that Rod
Bartlett's group is supposed to be porting ACES II.  

Would the Principles care to further elaborate?

Oh, by the way, what do the netters thing of parallel MOPAC?  My group is
working on this.
