[Makerspace-keymembers] Fwd: Steven Chu lecture

[Colten Jackson]

Forwarding an interesting lecture going on Sep 10 (today, unless you're up
late!), informed by John:

Here is the notice I got on that lecture,
Its free.  Please share this with other maker people.  I think this really
won't be about chemistry but about making
things that solve problems and I would expect that it will be accessible to
anyone that likes to make things -
chemical or otherwise:)
