Dear Professor Newell,

I greatly enjoyed our meeting at Xerox last week. I hope that, even if
there is no available position for me at CMU, we can keep in touch
about my research.

Enclosed is the %2Curriculum Vitae%* you requested, and a slightly
updated summary of my thesis project. 

It could be very productive for me to take a trip to Carnegie next
month, to meet the faculty and  give a seminar on %2The Automated Mathematician.%*
I've contacted a few other
schools on the East coast, 
and perhaps they and CMU
can each contribute a %2fraction%* of my travel costs for one
large "circle" trip.

Hoping to hear from you soon,

.DBL
