Amen, Brother McCallister! My 3 day lead time is only a request, and they know it. It does help get things sort of staggered coming in here. Some will send them early, some at precisely 3 days, some at 2 days some at 4:45 on THE day... whatever it takes, Honey, I review them all and am grinning the whole time. Without the grants, they probably wouldn't be printing a paycheck for me every month... so bring the grants on!!! >>> xxxxxx@UALR.EDU 09/22/05 04:59PM >>> As my friend Phil says, "I love deadlines, I like the sound they make as they fly by." If you are enforcing ANYTHING you aren't doing your job. We aren't cops.
