As it turns out, I'm to be in England for a couple of days now and could likely do it.

My own view is that it is highly unlikely that we'd get an agreement to do this whether the request from from the Foundation or us in the UK, and that making a formal request that would likely be declined could even give us negative publicity. Saying that though, there is an outside possibility that it might be possible, and it would make great press if it happened, so I shall make some sotto voce contacts with them next week to see how they might respond to an actual request.
Perfect ;-)
BTW, I'm unwell but I've managed to reschedule the BBC interview for 'Mousemat' to Wednesday or so. If I can't make it, would Alison be in a position to substitute? Probably Wednesday mid-morning. I'd finger James F. as a possible substitute too, but he'll be at work then.
