Science Applications International Corporation Cognitive Sciences Laboratory Memorandum Subject: From : Edwin C. May, Ph.D. A~11 4e Date: TO Equipment Issue and Stuff Equipment Thanks for helping with this. Please find our CO's letter to the Virginia Contracting Activity with re- gard to government furnished-equipment, and their response to us allowing us to keep one system and return three. Sadly the time runs out on this on 15 March. I might suggest that you first contact I have alread discussed this with him to effect the equipment's current status, and will do whatever says. on't do anythingwith- outiblesxi ng. The Virginia Contracting Activity should contact Ms. Betty Muzio (our CO, 703,734.4074) to resolve this problem. Contacts I can appreciate the magnitude of your job with regard to this project. and I suspect it might become overwhelming as we move on (see below). Of the list of contacts that I gave you, Jack Vorona has the longest. program responsibility and can fill you in on details that may be critical to your Current overall task. I talked with him in his capacity as Chair of my Policy Oversight Committee, and he agrees that he has important things to pass on to you ASAP. He is in town through next Monday. Options I hope among the options in deciding what io do with the Meade folks is not to transfer them as a unit; rather, have them "compete" with,contractor receivers for recertification. This TDY approach works especially well at keeping the data at high quality. The certification procedure should be multilevel to include applications simulations as well as laboratory experiment,,A. Criteria and protocols have all been worked out. Strong Rumor I just heard from some of my colleagues that Ingo Swann has recently briefed a very high level person in your organization (name is not appropriate in this forum) on remote viewing and extraterrestrial aliens! My sources are very good, so it might he prudent to find out if this is true. If it is, this is just one addition- al example of how "believers" can stir up the pot. Things like this have kept me from using Mr. Swann In my receiver population. Although he is good as a receiver and has particularly good insight into his own Internal experience, I have not had contact with him In over two years. Pvo of my current receivers have better track records, anyway. From my point of view, your task, your organization, and the field do not need a repeat of the Inscom fiasco. Please call if you would like further information. 330 Cowpor Street, Suite 200, Palo Alto, Caliloenia 94301.

Box 46563 Washington, D.C. 20050-6563 Attention: Subject: Reference: Contract No.MDA908-93-C-0004 (1) SAIC Letter No. 94-170 dated December 21, 1994 (2) SAIC Letter No, 94-168 dated December 20, 1994 (3) SAIC Project No. 01-0230-03-3880 This letter is to inform you of the current status of our progress on disposition of equipment under subject contract and to request further guidance based on additional information. SAIC has contacted and setup an appointment with the moving company that Ms. Barbara Stephens, DCMAO, had recommended. We understand that they will provide a written quote to DCMAO on the cost of packaging/crating and shipping the equipment to the Government facility. This quote should be provided by the end of the first week in February. SATC will be required to have one individual at the site while the equipment is packed. The moving company will provide an estimate as to the time required and SAIL will provide to you an estimate for the required time. The moving company did not anticipate a problem with delivery of the equipment to the Government facility by the end of February. I have enclosed a revised equipment list. This list replaces the one provided in the reference (1) letter. As you will note we have organized the equipment by DECAL number and deleted on item from the list. This item was tagged as a piece of equipment when it is actually software; therefore, we have deleted it from the equipment list. I have enclosed a separate list of the software purchased under this contract, The majority of the software was purchased under the previous contract and transferred to this contract. As you can see the software versions are not the current market versions. SAIC requests, disposition instructions for the enclosed software; Abandon in place or transfer, when possible, the site use license to the Government. SATC would require reimbursement for the time it would require to contact each vendor to transfer each license. We will provide an estimate for this service if requested. 1710 Goodridge Drive, P.O.

SAIC anticipates that the services provided under these two contracts will continue to be required by the Government and to prevent a duplication of purchased equipment, we would request your reconsideration to abandon in place the oldest of the computer systems. The oldest system would encompass the following DECAL numbers from the enclosed equipment list: G60714-1, 060714, G60714-2, 060715, G78546, G76930, 060716, G78541, and G60713.
