If you can walk and chew gum at the same time, you should know this already (and you can never legislate for those who can't). <br /><br />And I agree with Lucy that we <i>definitely</i> don't need them spending our money on projects involving companies and institutions that have clear conflicts of interest. <br /><br />Hmmmm... How about they just hold fire on this whole thing eh?
