Hey, thanks for the letters from the Sshrc admin folks. This is my first time dealing with this type of situation. Pros: Huge chunks of money fall from the sky for localized research in Quebec, Cons: ...waitressing again? I feel like a marionette: but i'm getting some storm-style white stress-streaks waiting on this baby. The Sshrc website is super useless, so thanks for the letters posted here: i guess its some kind of solace in shared outrage.
