Seriously, what kind of institutions are you finding that are willing to shell out that kind of cash?

And hey, if you ever want to retire some machines, I'd be willing to adopt them
This is why I put on workshops several times a year for different groups. As broke as this country is and as poor as our state public school system is, monies are out there!
The question becomes how hard are you willing to work to get it?
Then comes the pressure of performance based on what you got. Those that give out grant funding expect you to deliver and there are no gray areas when it comes to reporting/data/impact.
