Re: NASA Mars mission funding - better spent on paleo?

[hammeris1@bellsouth.net]

Ok, I will attempt again to herd this one back on topic -

You have $400M at your disposal in the western world for paleotology research 
grants for Mesozoic-era projects.

Where would it most be profitably put to use?

I'm looking for specific digs not yet exploited,
materials needed, perhaps current unexamined material in museums with too 
little staff and resources to get to it in a timely fashion, etc., etc.

I'd like a few suggestions sans Iraq, Madonna, or the current USA campaign.


Thanka, thanka vurra much!
