From page 7...
... Cameron: These models depend very sensitively on the mixing time assumed. If mixing requires two or three half-lives of 1^9, then it should be possible to get local enrichment of this nuclide.

From page 8...
... Any largescale disturbance of the cloud would probably result in its dispersal. Anders: On the other hand, the more massive stars in such a condensing cloud would evolve very quickly, within about 10 million years, and would then explode and inject freshly-synthesized material into the cloud.
