List for the 2014 Hot QCD White Paper Writing Group

[Urs Wiedemann <Urs.Wiedemann AT cern.ch>]

Hi Helen, and all,
 I think that your raised a good and important point.  Let me note that the 
same 
“translational aspect” can be noted for theory (what we developed matters for 
(some aspects of) string  theory, HEP and cosmology/astrophysics). It may not
be wise to overemphasize this point, but I’ll try to weave it into the small 
paragraph
on Theory Initiatives.
Best, Urs
