User talk:Ejc2017
- @Ejc2017: Hi. I'm Keith Brain, from the University of Birmingham (just since 2009), worked in a similar field to John's and hence he often popped by to talk science; I was also at the memorial last week. I'm guessing that you might be one of the Coote family. I wondered whether you might have a photo of John that you have taken that you'd be happy to release into the public domain, as his article could do with a picture. Let me know if you need a hand working out how to do that. If you reply here I should be notified and hence see your message.Klbrain (talk) 23:01, 12 January 2018 (UTC)
