We wanted wide-spread coverage, stratified sampling, as well as time sequence, and importantly, First Response funds to jump to go investigate and sample when something like this new wave of CCD happened, but the reviewers considered this to be a wasted effort.

So, where did the money go and did they consider it more wisely spent elsewhere?
