Good to see you again at 1452z on YouTube Mark.

I've been watching most of Solarsphere (like you on and off to do whatever) and very interesting earlier,
so will no doubt be on here for the rest of the sessions.

The music interlude just now was great and especially to hear and see Brian May and of course Sir Patrick.

Best Wishes on your talk soon.

Regards
Terry

[Carbon60]

Good talk, Mark. Followed you on YouTube.
