I BET WHEN THIS CALL is all done I will have been on the phone for 30-45 minutes. More stupid questions....I can't even handle this! Oh NO... more questions...did I check the website..duh! Someone help me! -----Original Message----- From: Research Administration List [mailto:xxxxxx@hrinet.org] On Behalf Of Bloomberg, Robert Sent: Thursday, April 23, 2009 4:44 PM To: xxxxxx@hrinet.org Subject: Re: [RESADM-L] My challenge grant still hasn't been validated...

And how much extra work is a phone call compared to the endless repeat submissions, questions to email lists, sleepless nights, anxiety, etc that every one is talking about? BTW, in answer to my question earlier today about how many applications have been rejected--answer: So far, 1, about a year ago. > -----Original Message----- > From: Research Administration List [mailto:xxxxxx@hrinet.org] On Behalf > Of bonnie kwit > Sent: Thursday, April 23, 2009 4:33 PM > To: xxxxxx@hrinet.org > Subject: Re: [RESADM-L] My challenge grant still hasn't been validated... > > So does that mean, I have to call g.g for every submission and get a > ticket > number?
