March 15: Had a great time in Winnipeg taping programs for It’s a New Day. They will air, I am told, in the fall (I’ll keep you posted on that). We taped four programs, two on The Cell’s Design and two on Creating Life in the Lab.

Here are some shots of me on the set with host Willard Thiessen.

March 16: Headed to Alcatel-Lucent at lunch time to give a talk on Creating Life in the Lab.  Afterwards headed to Trinity International University* for an evening lecture.

March 17: Evening lecture at Wheaton College.*

March 18: Day three in Chicago was busy. Spoke at Fermilab at lunch time.

I learned something interesting: Fermilab is the world’s largest producer of anti-protons. So if you need some anti-protons, cheap, you know where to go. 🙂

Closed speaking tour with an evening talk at Willow Creek Community Church.

*These events were not sponsored by Trinity International University or Wheaton College.

 

March 19: Ended my trip with a search for the perfect Chicago hot dog. Found it at Wiener’s Circle in downtown Chicago.
