Lenny,
Now I'm mad! Could you prepare a figure on the value of citizen volunteer
efforts in base clean up based on average time required for review of
tecnical data, comment and attendance of RAB meetings (I put in over 10
hours a month). Figure $25/hour x 10 hour month x 15persons per RAB times
the number of RABs. Let's show the risk of losing the value of this
volunteer service because of misplaced budget cutting.
