Those are all in excess of the luxury of which I was seeking. :) Does
your school have a pre-existing relationship with any of those? 

I'm shell shocked by costs here. I've been away a long time. My house on
the beach in Nicaragua cost 700/mo including maid service and utilities,
and I split it 3 ways....

(We are working towards making bufferbloat.net a more real entity but
that will take some more time)

My/our efforts towards your project are donated, of course.

As for a start date, I've had to push my other schedules up by 3 days
(have to be in California by the 22nd, now)

Still fixing my schedule up, thx for your offer of help, I hope to have
a grip on the whole trip by tomorrow afternoon.
