    Re Stanford and VJ Pande

    After a phone call to Stanford’s Provost and then being referred to one “Richard Zare” I am frankly a bit stunned. The reason for this call was to see if we could get some assistance with our F@H problems. Within the chain of command at Stanford Professor Pande would be answerable to...

    Abuse of folders

    In the past few weeks it would seem that we have all seen some interesting changes in the folding at home project. Changes are not uncommon with a project of this scope; in fact they are to be expected. As for myself I don’t mind change, its part of day to day life and has a tendency to keep...

    Why I posted the big scoop thread

    The point of my recent posts was never meant in any way shape or form to damage our team or stop folding. I have taken no sides on this issue other then I think Stanford can and should reconsider their whole communication program. The fact of the matter is I don’t think anyone, either us...

    The big Scoop as I see it
