Maybe I'm a bit too cynical but I think they haven't found anything but realize that billions of dollars of funding is on the line. How many people in the world would be qualified to argue the claim and not be part of their team?

I work in IT and only work 37.5 hours a week. Just enough to be considered full time by the government. I don't take phone calls or answer emails after 5pm. I am getting paid about 10% less than the average for my position but the perks are well worth it.
