If I might make a suggestion, you might try dishing out your ideas is bite
size pieces instead of coming across like you have the blue prints all drawn
up for the whole project.

For example, nanotube technology is cool so you might ask if incorporating
nanotube cloth instead of rayon in the construction of RCC panels would be
worth the cost. Ask something that we can chew on instead of immediately
jumping to light speed.
