Hey, Ittai. Are you saying ANS won't need any more NSF money to
operate? And that's why the 'story' has moved on? Or are you
just relieved that the 'mainstream press' isn't as diligent
as Cook on your government-money-mission relationships.

Let me tell you plain and simple. ANY company in the US that
is paid by taxpayer dollars, which means me, is fair game
for ALL press investigations until such time as they really
'privatise' and make an honest dollar without subsidy. 

You have just, by your demeaning put down of Cook, raised my
curiosity greatly. If you don't buy Cook's commentary, I
don't buy your propaganda or soothing words either.
