IF EVER THERE IS A TOMORROW WHEN WE'RE NOT TOGETHER, THERE IS SOMETHING YOU MUST REMEMBER - YOU ARE BRAVER THAN YOU BELIEVE, STRONGER THAN YOU SEEM AND SMARTER THAN YOU THINK. BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS, EVEN IF WE'RE APART, I'LL ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS BE WITH YOU. -- WINNE THE POOH

I'm so jealous that you got to meet her. I believe she is actually 73 soon to be 74.
Thx for the post Kate!
I guess there is some up side to your convalescence - you have lots of time to post on the blogs!!!

What an inspiration. I love getting to meet heroes in person!
I guess I have already made it pretty clear how I feel about Ms. Goodall. And it isn't that she isn't a good scientist. She is. She actually went against the grain when politically motivated research was trying to establish the great apes as peacefull and vegetarian, ie everything human beings aren't and should be.
It is just that so many like her are so predictably trading A level science for D level everyday ordinary political activism. Boring.
Sorry when I say boring, it is not the post, I am glad you got a chance to meet her, it is just that she used to be very interesting in comparison and now only talks about political activism the quality of which I can get from any guy knocking on my door looking for donations to green peace. Boy are they sorry to have knocked on my door. I should have a sign on my door that says 'solicitors may be argued down until they are about two inches tall.'
