@neiltyson Does that match the odds of getting hit by a killer asteroid? -
@IdoNotes@neiltyson snark like that when something like the tunguska event happens over a city. That was in 1908. Would haven leveled nyc. -
@CptTim true but my question was more inquisitive. Does the budget match the odds? Not snarky sense,, more validity sense@neiltyson -
@IdoNotes 1. Are there reliable odds? -- 2.Why should the budget match the odds? are there no other variables? -
@Jlisa7986 I was only asking in passing. As @jlisa7986 brought up the odds get better over time. I asked so should buget increase over time?

@mikamckinnon The summer program looks fantastic. I've calendared it for my son to apply after August of 2015! -
@travelingheidi It's an amazing program; the first academic challenge I had! The 50+ years of alumni stay in touch. Totally worthwhile.
