Whereas in hardware, there is innovation, but as far as beauty and artistry, I don't thinkthat that's where much of it is going onFLATOW All right, let me get -- we're running out of time. Let me get a reaction. Dr.Gelernter?197CALLER: OKGELERNTER I certainly agree up to a point, in the sense that software is I think the centerof technological efforts to be beautiful today. I don't want to -- I don't want to write hardware off inthe sense that it's much harder.

" They get to fool around with stuff. " Thesimulation advisors help new engineers learn how to make a part and how to design a better part bypicking up on the variables inherent in a manufacturing process they may never have used before,he said.
Still, new Honeywell engineers have yet another training ace up their sleeve. They can callupon a wealth of archived information gleaned from other engineers. Those archives - stored on avariety of multimedia applications, all accessible via the company's intranet - aren't just for freshhires.

Keeping Busy. It was a newsworthy meeting indeed. New Hubble images revealedintricate detail in planetary nebulae and the Hubble Deep Field captured remote galaxies. Ourdiscussion of these items led to all manner of things -- from the technology of CCD cameras andspacecraft instrumentation to the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. The Deep Field was ajumping-off point to talk about galaxies, Messier numbers, the Andromeda galaxy, the LocalGroup, and cosmology. Showing the film " Powers of Ten " put it all into perspective.
