Couldn't resist—was reasonable to let Michael =now since I worked with him on this... This is the young woman =rom
Afghanistan that I saved. (and who got admitted to ASU with =ichael's strong support).. Anyway, so much for not
supporting =oung women in science, or not being in a position to continue having =ny impact for ASU students or in the
physics community
