Then grant revenue dropped to less than 10% of what it'd been the previous year. So they left. Returning to the board there in 2009. Where grant revenue dropped from $61,686 in 2009 to $1,803 in 2012. So they left again. <span style="font-size: 12pt;">And came to work at KZYX!</span></div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This isn't about the new GM at KZYX.
