MUTATO NOMINE

As you can see, following the discussion last Monday, the name has changed. And, mutatis mutandis, so has almost everything else. If we are going to do it, then let's do it properly. So don't forget things like your email signatures. Mine is below: it is a bit long but you could use it (with your name!) for .remotesig.

TODAY'S SEMINAR

Monday Discussion on 21st November at 13.00 in the DSSE Lab.

The Monday lunch-time discussions have been revolutionized.
Today: A little taste of French Crepes

Be there with your ideas, suggestions and contributions.
