I don't know how to find this, not even in google Alan, what is SWAPAR Ban??? Date: Thu, 2 Feb 2012 11:06:53 -0800 To: vortex-l@eskimo.com From: a...@well.com Subject: Re: [Vo]:NASA Roadmap

I think that the "positive outlook" is only two labs who seem to believe it, versus this report representing NASA as a whole. I haven't read the whole thing (the blurry foo is too hard to tolerate for more than a couple of pages) but I got the impression that all projects were "voted on" to get the ranking. We know that the Langley work is done through some black "discretionary funds". I just hope this doesn't end up with a SWAPAR-like ban on ANY work. (Any news from them, by the way?)
