Dr. Bakhoum...I thought the claim of the company was for high "Proton Mobility" (conduction of H+?), that is hydrogen ions. Does this not make it a potential threat to membranes? Does this mean the "glass" is in fact not a silicon-based compound, according to your argument? Is there necessarily any intrinsic brittleness in such a glass which might preclude it from active duty in the "real <vibrating> world?
How could the hydrogen be delivered to the active site of proton mobility, without inducing brittleness. I suppose there could be a way.

Cheers.
