Thanks Ann.
Hope the conference was enjoyable, informative and productive. Like Andrew, I would welcome your suggestion for a better term than
wootz. Look forward to hearing your views about the possible significance of these fine sub-micronic structures that have been described recently.
Regards,
Ian.
