Sargent Shriver There was a second problem that was still not a technical problem... the project became classified. I couldn't work on it after having gone to all that trouble. I was considered a security risk, so I could not get a clearance. Gordon Gould I'm guess I'm up to about 70% of normal, which is a real relief.
