       05/25/1993 - GRAPES and Mice
       
       Dr. Moira Gunn's first guests are Joan Salute, Manager of the GRAPES
       project at NASA/Ames Research Center and Phil Frieze, Head of
       Winemaking for Robert Mondavi Winery. They'll be talking about a
       partnership between private industry and the federal government, a
       partnership which addresses the infestation of a disease which
       seriously affects the $10 billion/year California wine industry.
       Learn how NASA's satellites and low-flying aircraft combine with
       specialized sensors to discover the roots of this problem.
       
       In the second half, Moira interviews Cliff Brooks, Product Manager for
       Microsoft's new mouse. He describes the ergonomic development, how
       they tested it, left-handed-ness, and more marketing-type topics.
