Today I had the first @Cornell Salaam sales call with the president of a local small nano tech company. He is considering taking a Salaam trainee and seeing if there is a need and if it is worth is for them to train a student to do market research, only to keep them for 2 months. All very reasonable questions. The meeting went pretty well and I drank my first Mate. I realized that stuff on the Commons is much nicer than anything in Collegetown and that we should all go down there more. Anyways, the Salaam race is on. There is no reason that we shouldn't reach our goal of 5 trainees in Ithaca, other than our laziness! Let's make it happen!
