Dr Nash is working hard as always. I am still doing a look at the report. Unfortunately it is between house keeping. FNX is in the process of care and maint.

It's funny, I worked in the federal government for 20 years as a finance clerk and government is so structured. So many regulations about how you can do things.

Very quickly, you realized that there is no pure system that is a fix. Some of the smartest students though ended up working for the Bank of Canada and the Federal Government
