McNaught facing project closure

[bkm2304 (Richard Brown)]

Rob McNaught is under threat of closing the NEO search at Siding Spring as the funding dries up.

And congratulations to the teenage swimmers who, despite complaining bitterly about their dreadful deal, will be getting tens of thousands every time they get a medal at the olympics....

The cost of each Olympic Gold in Beijing was $17 Million in funding. And as was pointed out by Brian Cox, the UK spent in one year, more money bailing out the banks than it had on science since Jesus!

Try not to think about it, we live in a world run by fools.
