There is a charter school there in Portland that specializes in marine
science. I donated about 6500 ocean science books to them, including a
number signed for me by Jean Michel.
I love marine sciences, including biology, geology, and technology. Even
archaeology. It's really the next frontier.
I'm totally envious of that. Marine biology is such a neat topic and
Jean Michel has done an awesome job carrying on the legacy of his
father.
