What a pile of bat droppings!  

The same sort of thing happened here when Canada's first female
astronaut, Roberta Bonday got a great huge government grant to
photograph Canada from the air, and publish it in a book.  She'd never
done a professional photo job in her life, and admitted that she'd
only recently become interested in photography, yet she gets a coupla
hundred thousand to do this book (from which she got the profits,
never having to pay the gov't back a cent).

Things like this pretty much leave a real bad taste in my mouth.  

cheers,
frank
