Subject: Suggestion to 7771 Fellows
I received a few notes from you guys about whether you need to do more to reach 7771 classmates. Based on my experience on Luo Guobao's case, we can not depend on 777 Web site to reach most people. Many 7773 classmates responded only after I forwarded them the web board message by e-mail. Since the board has been quiet for quite a few months, most people don't visit it regularly. If some people do not respond, it is OK, but I believe most people value that period of life regardless what field they are in right now. We have only a few 7773 classmates still working in geochemistry/geo-sciences, but we have 14 people responded in two days with donations already. So, you may want to give it a try as suggested by Zhao Lianshe to reach out to your classmates. You may find most people are waiting for your call out there.
