I try mike I try....my original intent was to give the Foundation a chance to let a bunch of koi people in on the WORK being done on the money.
the Foundation was over-selling the method used to disburse the funds and it was sounding like NOTHING was being done....Now we know....
And IMNSHO Bekko has nailed the head here.....the foundation will not have adequate money to finance a whole concept but could be valuable to the total body of work being generated by stepping in with funds when a research team needs a little Financial help at that moment....Initial that sounds like a tough place to try and be but getting the word out, with the understanding that the foundation is interested in all the KHV work and should be kept up to date so that if a research project hits a financial bump the Foundation could step in and get them over it
