I never thought getting sponsorships would be this easy. Thanks a lot for
the offer Bruce.

Don't take it personally. The offer is open to all silklisters. Note however my point about an "interesting topic".


While the costs of flying to bangalore and back are not really very
large - about 6,000 INR or thereabouts....

Is that all? I couldn't get a flight to Miami for that price. One way!

One of the reasons I'm considering this grant is that the cost for *me* to get to Bangalore is about 90,000 INR *and that's economy, which I cannot endure for 25 hours). Attending by proxy is my only chance.

Though for a nice steak at Shiok, beer, and conversations....


I would feel too guilty to actually take the offer.

You have a lot to learn about how grants work, friend. <G>
