Additional Description

Annotation by Robert L. Forward, 24 Dec 86 (on inserted paper)

"See page 69 about my gravity wave experiments and 72-73 about their trip up to Malibu. That ultimately resulted in Far Out Physics. I also gave them the idea for the Mote (green laser beam) in God's Eye, the Moties were using my one way laser pushed lightsail."
