<p class="MsoNormal">Hello CASA Crew!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I felt like sharing this pre-print with all. For those that don’t know, CLIC (The Compact Linear Collider) is not *<b>fully</b>* dead, though it will likely never be built. That said, the work performed on this idea (roughly 30 years of
work) is pretty outstanding, and has lead to some excellent spinoff work (like X-Band tech, etc…).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Mostly, I wanted to share. Some very interesting work was done. Sometimes, it doesn’t matter how outstanding the work is, some things just never come to fruition.<o:p></o:p></p>
