Dear Colleagues, Just as it seems that the ITER siting issues may be resolved (probably Cadarache, France), the House is holding up funding until March, 2007, preventing the United States from agreeing to join the effort until that date. Of course, the Senate still needs to act on this as well. Science Magazine has a news article with details at: "With Domestic Program at Issue, House Votes to Hold Up Funding for ITER" http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/reprint/308/5727/1395a.pdf Norman Graf P.S.
