    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">I have been lucky to gain from Simon's
      broad expertise during the KUR-Programme and haven't met a person
      being that much devoted to fluid preservation, collection care and
      restoration of historic collection objects before.<br>
      <br>
      His broad practical knowledge can hardly be pressed into the few
      lines of a publication, and even though we didn't manage to bring
      Simon &amp; his course to Germany yet, I can only encourage folks
      dealing with fluid collections to gain from Simon's expertise.<br>
      <br>
      Being a freelancer he has to take money for the course, but this
      is well invested money, especially regarding (historic &amp;
      modern) preservation techniques.<br>
      <br>
      Book him, his course surely is worth every penny!<br>
      <br>
      (wouldn't compliment Simon / his course that much if I had not
      learned so many details on fluid preservation in many fruitful
      discussions with Simon the recent years!)<br>
