Re: you are invited to OUR BASIC 2019 CONFERENCE AND OTHER ACTIVITIES as well, from JANUARY 6-12 , 2019

Dear Jeffrey,
I was very happy to hear that you are interested in the project concerning starting a Theoretical Physics Center in Long Island, in the Bahamas. So far there has been great interest from the University of Miami, they suggested that such center could be an extension of their theoretical physics group. There has been interest also from physicists from Havana and from Puerto Rico. There have been positive comments also from Fernando Quevedo, the head of the ICTP, the International Center for Theoretical Physics, an Italy and UN funded organization, based in Trieste Italy.

who suggested there could be a possibility the KIP could have some involvement (may be to fund participation from Cuban physicists?). Also Richard Keyworth, a developer in Long Island has mentioned that he was willing to sell the land needed for the center at a discount and also help, using his connections, to get some (but probably not enough) funding from the Bahamian government. We would like to know to what extent you would like to participate in this development, of course we can take your suggestions concerning the favorite topics you would like to emphasize for example gravity?, I understand this is one of your favorite topics, since you once organized a conference on this topic. I am planning to travel to both Miami and Long Island in March, I could also visit you for example in the Virgin Islands, but other places could be as well, to discuss the extent of your participation, your input on what subjects you would like to be emphasized, what are your suggestions for the name of the center, etc., anything you want.

All the best,

Tomorrow I travel to Chile, from there some time in March I will go to the US, both the East Coast and the west coast, Miami and Bahamas, probably to Bahamas also with Tom Curtright from U. Miami. In another development, Zeeya Merali, Science journalist told me she would agree to be spokesperson for the center. Zeeya Merali has written articles across a range of scientific subjects for Scientific American, Nature, New Scientist, and Discover. A freelance journalist and author, she has published two textbooks in collaboration with National Geographic and is now working on her first popular physics book (which in fact will cover some of my work on "baby universes"). Her documentary, Aperture Fever, about amateur astronomy, was broadcast on The History Channel, UK, in 2008. She has also worked on the forthcoming Nova television series "The Fabric of the Cosmos". Merali received a first-class degree and Master's in natural sciences from the University of Cambridge and a PhD in cosmology from Brown University.

that is all for now,
all the best,
Eduardo

Dear Jeff,

You are invited to OUR CONFERENCE IN BAHAMAS, BASIC2019 which wi=l be
taking place in Stella Maris in Long Island Bahamas, January 6 to 12 2019
see the announcement of our next conference,
