[sudo-discuss] [CCL] Re: Have a heart! - free pig hearts looking for adventurous carnivore

[Benjamin Lack]

Hi Craig,

I think it would still be worth it so that the folks at CCL can better
understand the project. There's a lot of scientific expertise and resources
there, and maybe someone will be able to help out. In addition, there's
still the immunology lectures when you get back in March, and whatever
non-profit/outreach work you had in mind. Besides, I think that by the time
you're back, we'll have BSL-2

What do you think?

Ben
