1 August 1968Seeing In The Sea a report and a challenge
Thank you very much for such a welcome. I am very pleased... The reason why I came is not, as you said, that I have anything to offer to you, but because I was amazed, pleasantly amazed, at the fact that somewhere in the world there was enough talent and knowledge to gather such a symposium as you have done here, and I thought it was such a remarkable effort I just could not help coming with big eyes and big ears. Unfortunately, I can not stay long enough to participate in your discussions. I am very sorry.
