Concluding Remarks

Abstract

At the outset of these remarks I want to acknowledge Prof. Hisatake Kondo, past President of ISAC and President of XVIth ISAC Symposium for his excellent job as a host. He and his team of coworkers showed to all of us what the efficiency of organization in every regard means. I want to underline the two aspects that impressed me more: first, it was the Shinkansen type of punctuality in the initiation and completion of every event during the Meeting days; second, it was the sided projection that allowed every participant to be aware of coming events ahead of time. That virtue and this organizational strategy were dressed with a sincere expression of warmth that made the nearly four days of Symposium pleasant and substantial; the substance of the Meeting was provided by all symposiasts.
