These conclusions were obtained through an unorthodox combination of techniques. In addition to classical biochemical methods, he used a microscopist's approach. He took advantage of a structural peculiarity of the cells. As it is produced, cocoonaise gets stored in a separate part of the cell, away from the rest of the cell's proteins.

Tass added that the North Vietnamese would nonetheless be willing to consider Warsaw as an alternative. Hours later, Hanoi confirmed its choice of the Polish capital in a formal note delivered to U.S. Ambassador William Sullivan in Vientiane, where there have been as many as nine exchanges between American and North Vietnamese diplomats...
