1BChan TWC Green Building Cafe

George Pór said… - hi Barbara, you have an amazing memory!
> Are you the same George Por who came to UC Berkeley some years ago when I was the Foreign Scholar Adviser?
Yes I am and I think we met a few times when I was a Visiting Research Fellow or something like that at UC Berkeley but that was more than 30 years ago!
