They say that to be a good scientist one must have a good imagination. Ray Noyes would like to think that his time spent at CERN, the home of the Large Hadron Collider, so exercised his imagination to prepare it for writing satirical books about Horatio Evans. Ray studied under a Zen master for some twenty years or so and eventually was given permission to teach basic Zen, which he did at a Buddhist retreat centre in the hills of mid-Wales, near Llandovery.
