Abstract:
If I were to attempt to register tonight the enthusiasm which I feel for concrete, you would think me something like an ardent old lady writing a testimonial for Peruna: "Having drunk a thousand bottles of it, I feel that it saved my life." This material has saved my life on two occasions; it is no wonder then that I like to talk about it. The first experience may not interest you particularly but I must tell it.
