My immediate reaction was that our job had just increased by two or three years, but that the samples were still there. A 200 miles-per-hour crash isn't going to dislodge solar wind atoms that are buried in the collectors. It's going to take longer and people are going to have to work harder...but the samples are still there.

Fifty-acre parcels are generally not that available in Silicon Valley. You can't buy 50 acres, you have to piece it together. So if you're Apple and you're going to go through the trouble of putting it together, you might as well pick an area you want to stay in, as opposed to one further away where you might save money but it will be just as difficult to assemble.

Throughout my discussions I was confident that a way through the problems could be found and that a business case could be made. I'll continue to work with the new company to make sure the project remains viable and has a sustainable future.
