Chairman Gerard: Thank you very much. I cannot resist pointing out that 

 maybe the thing that worries you most of all in this is itself going to go up the 

 chimney somehow because, as you know, it is possible for brain to continue 

 functioning for several hours with no glucose at all. I can also not resist pointing 

 out that the mischievous enzyme theory comes back to the same problem that 

 was raised with oxygen lack in nervous system and the fact that there is a sur- 

 vival time, a revival time and a recovery time which are closely related. And
