Submitted my grant today for the December 8th deadline. Not Dec 10 - I don't have cs anymore since my ss was dissolved. Dec 8 would have been November 19th which would have been November 5th since I had study section on November 12th to 13th which is actually on January 12th to 13th. Any questions?

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired.
