NSF is much more university oriented, more academically oriented. They do compliment each other, they are not mutually exclusive, and that is the point I wish to make, that ATP does play a role. It is a complimentary role. It is kind of a last resort opportunity for firms that know that they have a good idea, they have to compete with other good ideas and have to be fully reviewed, and I think it is a great deal of scrutiny they are exposed to." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
