I wrote to Harry Kroto (The British discoverer of C60, the molecular form of Carbon, who was jointly awarded the Nobel prize for the discovery) to ask if you would like to be involved with the project (and come along to Glastonbury)

This was his reply (I have edited out a personal bit at the end....)

Hi Bryson
Thanks for writing to me. However I am not sure I can take on anything more at the moment as I am deep under water with commitments - particularly on my GEOSET project. I live in the US much of the year now too. You are welcome to quote me: This sounds like a good idea but also sounds pretty tricky too. I do not think I can commit to any involvement either as I really am drowning - really and when I am in Europe I tend to have a lot of commitments too.

So I think I would go for

"A good idea ... pretty tricky too." Sir Harry Kroto 2009

Do we think that's good for us?
