<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 & 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 &
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>
