I do agree. I especially agree with Dr. Lane's statement that ``Acting now on this procurement would be inconsistent with the responsible stewardship of taxpayer money.'' It is critical, both from an economic and national security perspective, that the United States maintain its leading role in supercomputing technology. Because the supercomputer industry survives on relatively few sales, each procurement project plays an important role in maintaining the supercomputer industrial and technology base. I therefore strongly concur with the NSF's recent action.
