The tour, in addition to attending and delivering a lecture to the Convergent Minds Conference in Boston, was an opportunity to catch up with friends and colleagues. We began in New York where we met Prof. Robert Lurtz, of NYU; Mike Ruane, CEO of Revelation Software; the journalist Michael Balter; and Prof. Denis Peli, of NYU.

After this we moved out to Boston  where we presented our work to the Convergent Minds conference~ there was time and opportunity during our stay to hang out with notable Harvard Professors and luminaries of cognition and memory~ most notably the scintillating Dan Gilbert and his wife Marilynn, and the amazing Dan Schacter.

There were many highlights during our visit~ not least of which were the great cities.
