Keywords:
almost disjoint; saturated family; refinement; large cardinals
Summary:
If there is no inner model with measurable cardinals, then for each cardinal $\lambda$ there is an almost disjoint family $\Cal A_{\lambda}$ of countable subsets of $\lambda$ such that every subset of $\lambda$ with order type $\geq {\omega^{\scriptscriptstyle2}}$ contains an element of $\Cal A_{\lambda}$.
