To ITTVIS's credit, they understand this is a problem and
they worked with us to provide everyone in the program an
IDL license. This was *extremely* generous of them and greatly
appreciated.

Yes, I agree with you, given a chance things can change in these
disadvantaged countries. The students are willing and able, and
with a bit of support will be able to do important things for their
country.

Yes, me, too. :-)

I'm heading around the world in a different direction in October,
when I head for Australia. This is going to be another interesting
year for me. :-)

Cheers,

David
