Dear Friends,<br><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; Please join me in congratulating John on his election to
the<br>
National Academy of Sciences.&nbsp; John's leading effort in the
density<br>
functional theory (DFT) is widely used in many fields to calculate<br>
fundamental properties of materials.&nbsp; Professor Ward Plummer of
LSU<br>
was a leader in this effort.<br><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Jim<br><br>
