Back in my Corporate Engineering life, The VP of manufacturing was pressuring me to get my team to complete our third manufacturing facility in the Dominican Republic.  The other 2 plants that I had constructed had made the Corporation about $80 million in tax savings.  So I told relayed my plan for continued support of the project and mentioned (with a straight face) that I'd complete it a month earlier, if they would pay me 1 month's worth of savings.  I'd never proposed anything like this to him before.  He gave me a double-take, chuckled and walked-off...

Never hurts to ask, though.

Can't say I've ever seen better images taken to promote a new telescope! You guys should be very proud. Congrats!!
