Dear Walt:
(1) Many thanks for your msg (ATTACHMENT I).
Dear Alain:
(2) I would greatly appreciate it if you can kindly help WalterÕs searching an
organization which may be interested in receiving the donation of a large
collection of American Chemical Society (ACS) journals. Pls feel free to
contact Walter on this matter.
Dear
E-Colleagues:
Pls let me know any willing
recipient of such a valuable journal.
(3) My wholehearted congratulations to your steady progress to the project of
constructing an encyclopedia of organic chemistry (EnCOrE):

Dear Walt:
(4) Alain (References (b) to (h) above) once inquired any professors who might
be interested in his EnCOrE Project — see ATTACHMENT II and III.
Pls visit Reference (a) above for my reply to him, which mentioned of my Ph.D.
thesis under Dr. Othmer, your predecessor.
Dear Shiro:
(5) Pls pay your attentions to WaltÕs and AlainÕs desires and projects.
How is the alumni of Polytechnic Institute in Japan? I strongly suggest
that you visit it next time when you will be in NYC area. It has been
changed a lot — Dr. Okamoto has retired from the dean of hypolymer
chemistry.
Keep In touch.
Best, Tak

Hi -
One of our faculty has a large collection of ACS journals - JACS &
Macromolecules - that he would be more than willing to donate but we are having
trouble identifying a recipient. I thought, perhaps, with your connections you
might be able to help us identify someone who could benefit from these.
Please let me know.
Thanks

Subject: Collaborative work
involving peace
Dear
Prof. Utsumi,
I was one of the members of E-LEGI project and a friend of Stefano Cerri and
help to develop Grid based tools to allow communication and collaboration
between Chemists. I am a member of your mailing list and appreciate your
efforts and thoughts.
I would like to benefit from your experience and your advice and your help to
create a freely available, net-based, encyclopaedia of organic chemistry, which
we call EnCOrE (Encyclopdie de Chimie Organique Electronique). It will remain
up-to-date to assist education, and provide information in organic chemistry at
all levels from university students to practitioners in research in formal as
well as informal ways.
This encyclopedia is expected to be built under a strong scientific board for
quality and reliability but collaboratively with chemists all over the world
from any country, any non-profit or profit organizations without
discrimination. This collaboration is expected to be active not only to fill
its content but more importantly to built its conceptual framework as it will
disclosed below.
We hope that the collaborative tools (Grid based) we are using and we hope to
improve, will allow a better understanding and favor the Peace processes.
In a first run I would like to gather there the international community of
organic chemists basically those which are involved in the discovery of methods
to produce and create substances for knowledge acquisition to properties
(Physical, chemical, biochemical) including drug discovery.
I dream that it will, be in a second step, devoted to non professional: school
students, school teachers, students and media. The objectives being to teach or
to answer their question in an independent and scientific way favoring
discussions and collaborations.
The objective is a take advantage of this process to disclose a model on
Encyclopedia building, mixing pragmatic and semantic approaches around a strong
ontological nucleus.
In organic chemistry experiments as well as concepts and rules are the basis of
knowledge.
Although chemical databases have been build as early as 1830 (Chemisches
Zentralblatt), Handbuchs der Organischen ChemieŅand Chemical Abstract is 100
years old (Electronic 1983). Noting is known abot knowledge and many chemist
use database to perform analogies and imagine that this is knowledge.

(02/09/08) Collaborative work for constructing the encyclopedia of organic
chemistry (EnCOrE
Dear sir,
Can you identify yourself ? Thank you very much for all the pertinent
information you are giving me. I was unaware. It is helping me a lot.
Do you think that there is a way to get support ?
I have an excellent advisory board which includes Prof. Ryoji Noyori, Nobel
2001 in chemistry and Prof. John Gladysz, co-editor of chemical reviews
(American Chemical Society), Prof. Carreira (ETH, Zurich) and Prof.
G. Mehta (Bangalore).
I am 65 and 3 month and I am applying to a ERC grant (European commission) with
Stefano as my co-investigator. The support is uncertain. My University is not
supportive because of the age although I am still teaching until next
September.
Scientists are collaborating in India (Pondicherry) , and France
(Avignon, Montpellier) to built tools to allow machine readable chemical
equation and chemical structure and we want to built our encyclopedia
especially a chemical dictionary and chemical ontologies collaboratively using
adapted grid powered tools (Grid shared desktop from Stefano)

Alain
