I used to work at a biotech startup (late '90s) and our senior management was trying to get Corey to join our scientific advisory board.
Eventually, he agreed and our company drafted a press release (it was a big coup for us). Apparently, the initial draft that was sent to Corey said something like, "Dr. Corey's lab is one of the premier laboratories in the world for organic synthesis...." The revision that Corey sent back crossed out the words "one of".
