First I listened to your blog on this interview, then I watched it. How good is it to see such an enthusiastic young man like Harry telling us mere mortals all about Phosphorus etc. Thankyou so much for sharing these brilliant interviews with us.
Interesting and engaging. Harry shows the skills of a very good teacher and researcher. As always your interview technique brings out the best of your guests.
To say I enjoyed this conversation (your “interviews” are so much more and *are* conversations) would shortchange it. This was absolutely thrilling and spellbinding to listen to. As you eluded to, my brain’s science fiction right side and science fact left side, were equally engaged and enthralled. As soon as my finances permit, I will be stepping up to next level of Patronage on Patreon. Thank you!!!
