After the new folks take over that number will approach zero. George Brown (chair of House Sci. Comm.) will be replaced by Bob Walker whose main claim to fame in 1988-89 time frame when I was there was an amendment eliminating any R&D govt. funding to any campus that had a drug conviction. -clark johnson
