I did the inside of the double helix.

But look at the beautiful sugar phosphate backbone twirling around the outside.

That's 100% Francis.

And so you look at it, and you think, OK, the world's greatest scientific partnership ever

It's the US on the inside and the UK on the outside.

I mean, it just doesn't get better than that for me.

And I could go on and on and on about what I got from the UK that I could never have gotten from anything else.

You're in charge of that legacy.

And you're screwing it up.

We want the confidence.

We want you guys to be the great orators of our time.

You know, how much do we lean on Churchill?

Again, a complex product of America and the UK.

It's very important to us if we are going to be the major power that the UK play its role.

Well, in multiple ways.

First of all, there was a question about testing the nuclear weapon for the simple purpose of reminding us of what we're talking about to scare the crap out of us so we can get another 80 years of peace.

But the other thing is if we test them within our scientific programs, then we will have more lethal weapons because we will be more assured that we know how they behave.

We've lost a lot of knowledge about how these weapons behave by letting that atrophy.

So it really matters a great deal whether it's underground, whether it's above ground or underground nuclear testing.

You know, the underground stuff doesn't have the same impact, and the above-ground stuff has terrible consequences.
