((BM explains nature of project to TS))

TS: Can I offer the - you said scientific knowledge. I'm not all that interested in how much scientific knowledge anybody goes away from here with. I expect it to be some. I would not expect to be able to say what particular bits. That will depend entirely upon who it is and the way in which their visit has gone. What I would expect to happen is that they go away with perhaps a changed attitude towards science. That is that, they think it's more interesting. They think it's more::: amusing. They think it's less threatening. And the the thing that I mentioned before that is, they might go away with perhaps an unrealised attitude that they will engage - subsequently with things scientific perhaps more readily than they have done hitherto. And I think that those are as important if not more important than taking away any particular realisation "ah this is how that worked" or so on. I expect some of those things to happen - but it's much more an attitude change that I think we would be looking for. Is that something which is interesting to you as well?

BM: yes.
