Cheering on Alberta crude being worth less than $30 a barrel and Alberta liberal moralists saying to Alberta fascists 'of course no one is cheering on the oil crash, don't be absurd' and I've got my hand stuck up, 'I am! I am!' Not much on the Virus thus far.

Much as I would like to, neither the dept nor the Institute have visiting professorships. We do, however, provide office space for visiting fellows with their own funding. Sorry. Maybe contact Clint Burnham.
