I don’t have nightmares. I don’t see nightmares coming from it, I see a lot of hard work, but I’m not worried that little things are gonna take over the world and run amok. That doesn’t bother me. The dreams are that we’re able to accomplish – there’s so much that can be – that if we get our priorities right, make the breakthroughs that we need to, and see some of those things take place. Obviously, everyone would like to see – there’s all those mechanical things, there’s everything from nanocarbons – I think you can appreciate the effect those will have on building things, like airplanes, if you have something that is a fraction of the weight of steel, yet is 50-100 times stronger, I mean it doesn’t take much imagination to understand how important that could be, and everything from airplanes to spaceships to buildings that we’re sitting in today. Those are major changes, events that will take place, I think that that’s exciting. Just to see those things take place and continue to move forward. I’m an optimist by nature and what little I can gleam from this, I think the dreams will be big dreams. And the other thing that excites me about it, and you dream about, is the collaboration, and what can come from that collaboration. The results that will come from that I think will be dramatic and it’s wonderful to see that take place, and I think that this particular technology is probably.. that’s the key to its success and I think that that will create or breakdown enormous barriers that are there, so that we will not just see it in nanotechnology, but that collaboration will go on in the other areas as well.
