The meeting in Brussels took place in one of the European Commission buildings. Being rather jet lagged I managed to leave the flyers I had brought to hand out back at the hotel. A colleague loaned me her cell phone and I called the hotel and woke up HG. Stirred into action, he finally made it across the city on the metro, and hand delivered the flyers, walking stright into the meeting room. he said it was like wlking into the set of the movie Dr Strangelove. A hushed tiered lecture room with laecture benches, and headphones and microphones at every seat -- more suitable for a meeting of the United nations than a bunch of scientists.
