Wow that is gorgeous and I would love to touch it. However, I will leave the task of getting the silk to the professionals.

That may well be the coolest thing I have ever seen. It's almost miraculous. I wish I could see it in person and touch it. That gold color is amazing, and it's probably the strongest fabric ever made. How incredibly awesome. I might even be willing to wrangle spiders to make something like that.

Wow! Think I'm gonna have to go over to the museum to check this baby out in person.
