Many thanks to all the audiences around the world for such an amazing experience. Many persons from the non-scientific community participated too, that is society at large. My deepest gratitude goes to them. Thanks to the comments received through emails, Twitter, my blog, face-to-face, formally or informally in Argentina, the United Kingdom, the Malvinas/Falkland Islands, Spain, México, Perú, China, Turkey, Russia, the United States of America, Brazil, Nigeria, Gibraltar, Kashmir, Israel. These pages would have been meaningless without their input. For science and philosophy with any relevance to a positive impact on people and their life are, for this writer, what make these pages meaningful.
