But our leadership made the decision to request a realistic amount of money - the amount which they felt would accomplish the job, an amount that they could explain in great detail. I don't fault them for that. But the fact that this is a reasonable amount and not a blue sky request has yet to be pounded home. >> One problem is that the people "in the trenches" (PWPs & CGs) are, for the most part, not privy to that information. So how can we pound anything home? Regards, WHH 54/18
