Still not dead.

Ran into the Poliakoffs on the train last week and said hi. (Yes, I do in fact know them, this wasn't just a mad chemistry fan thing.) They were travelling back from a funeral so it wasn't the most cheerful of meetings, but it was good to see them - they were and are friends of my parents lo these many yeers.

Have a video. Have many videos!

I note that Wikipedia has no entry for Janet Poliakoff, despite the fact she's also an academic with a publication record, and therefore notable: bad Wikipedia.
