@cmdrfred I don't really know where is the best area to invest in, personally I prefer to just pay my taxes and have a government in place that either consists of or consults with the appropriate experts.

In Australia we are fairly lucky in this regard, our government is 'mostly' good, for some value of mostly at least. I'm not saying it couldn't be more efficient but definitely more efficient than research institutions needing to market to the broad public for funding.

Thanks!

I didn't know it worked that way, that seems.. unintuitive to say the least heh.

I've not read any explanation as to why it is that way, only that it is. Such is life.

I believe there's a delay in place before you can reply to a reply to your own comment (presumably to force you to breathe a bit if you're potentially about to engage in a flame war).

Reply link does not appear straight away. In the time it took for you to read comments and click the specific link, enough time had passed so that the reply link was available
