Scope and content
Encloses a cutting from the Vancouver sun, 'Quasar blows theory: 'farthest object' found', about the discovery of a new quasar, PKS2000-300 18 billion light years from earth. Thanks FH for the copy of The quasar controversy resolved and the postcard of Ullswater. Details the progress made on their new house, which is an 'elaborate project'. The 'Engineering Workshop' is 'virtually complete', and half their land in 'under cultivation'. Hopes that there are 'enough people' with FH's ideas on the planet to 'avoid thermonuclear war'.
