And then some people in Chicago came along and they said, "In late 2007, the theme of the Chicago Humanities Festival is global warming. And we've got this 3,000 square-foot gallery and we want you to fill it with your reef." And I, naively by this stage, said, "Oh, yes, sure." Now I say "naively" because actually my profession is as a science writer.
Apoi au venit cativa oameni din Chicago si au zis: “La sfarsit de 2007 tema Festivalului Umanitatii din Chicago este incalzirea globala. Si avem o galerie de 280 de metri patrati pe care vrem sa o umpleti cu reciful dumneavoastra.” Iar eu, naiva pe atunci, am zis: “Oh, da. Sigur.” Am spus „naiva” pentru ca, de fapt, profesia mea este de scriitor stiintific.
