I now have some of the presentations from the Santa Fe Conference posted on a web site.
The Conference was discussed on this previous thread.
Check out a good article on the conference written by Rob Nikolewski, a New Mexico journalist. Nikolewski interviewed Muller, myself, Ramaswamy, Monckton.
After talking to scientists and listening to their sometimes arcane presentations that often went over the heads of the unititiated, I reached some conclusions after the 5-day conference.
