Good battery proposal, yours. You’ve got the green energy thing covered. Plus there’s enough fancy words to impress the impressionable.
Unfortunately, you’re missing one key ingredient. There is no mention of transsexual rights. So I suggest that you include in your proposal a promise to appoint a transsexual as CEO.
You don’t have to actually do that. In fact, you don’t have to do anything. Just wait until the grant check clears, then walk away from the whole mess.
My PHD is in Proinconology. A few tranny-drag shows in my business development planning might just do the trick. Thanks.
