Word up, boink. It's refreshing to actually hear people say these kinds of things... thank you.
[Full disclosure, I'm one of those people studying tree frogs, or at least the anthropological equivalent... and got a tiny grant from the National Science Foundation. My field is one of the worst-funded divisions of NSF, but that's not changing no matter how many wars we're fighting. Unless someone wants to study Iraqis--the gov't pours money onto those people, believe me.]
