What requirements would the desired facility have?" Lorin nodded. Hopefully he scored a point with T'Sar. >"My requirements will be project-specific.

"Perhaps you could provide us with >some information about the two projects you are hoping to merge and tell us >how this would improve the work of those involved." Lorin stood, "If I may refer you to your desk terminals please." He hit a button on his PADD and up came a 3 graphs. The two side-by-side on the top showed the lack of progress and wasted funds from the previous state of R&D. It was significant and should distress anyone. Then he brought up the third graph of expected results and there was no disputing the intended results with the current data. It was a dramatic increase in results and savings in revenue-both well over 150% of current standards. _______________________________________________ Spacedock mailing list [email protected] http://mail.starbase1.org/mailman/listinfo/spacedock_starbase1.org
