The photographs are a universal language. The full page in particular has
reproduced extremely well. I need to check if this one is available as a
print!

Cheers

Thanks Geoff!  When putting the article together, LFI asked for a selection
of photos from which they chose the ones used in print based to a large
degree on how they would fit in the layout.  I should also mention that the
text of the interview was originally in English then apparently translated
to German for editing (to fit the layout) then back to English.  Double
translation... a little was lost but not enough to change the basic ideas.
