Dear Elia
This is fantastic! Thanks so much. It is perfect. We answered your questions in the attached draft and we made one minor change. And, sure, we grant you permission to use the movie and also to give it to other users for educational, news media, or research purposes, provided the users credits the source of the image/movie.
We really appreciate that you wrote the story about our work.

Dear Dr. Bassler,
I'm a science writer who recently started working for the
communications office at NIGMS.
We plan to higlight the recent findings by you and your colleagues on
biofilm streamer formation (reported in PNAS), and the related video,
in our publication series, Inside Life
Science, which
also runs on the public science news site
LiveScience. These stories are written for
the general public.
Would you be able to get any corrections or comments back to me by next
Wednesday, April, 24? I've included a couple of specific queries for
you in the comments field.
Also, please let me know if it would be OK to feature this movie in our
collection of research-related multimedia at
http://images.nigms.nih.gov/. When we post videos and images in this
gallery, we grant users permission to use them for educational, news
media, or research purposes, provided that users credit the source of
the image.
Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you.
