I have thought of that before and we would certainly be interested. I need to figure out how you even get rolling on that. I went through the website maze once or twice a while back but cannot recall my conclusions exactly. One of my initial reservations given my situation is that knowing how gov works I imagine if I start the paperwork now I might see a PO in mid to late '09 if everything goes well
My father has been dealing with a couple of congressmen recently though, maybe they can point us to the fast track?? I'm calling him on this now.
