Don't click this link if you are sick of me pointing you to mentions of the climate change in NC study that I participated in, this time with the mention at Environmental Valuation & Cost-Benefit News.
At lunch on Friday after the conference where I presented a summary of this research it was mentioned that we did a lot of work for not so much in the way of monetary compensation. I thought, jeez, we probably would have taken the job for half that!
Reminds me of a funny story. Government guy calls me up fishing for a price on a research job. The number $40k is mentioned by the guy. Immediately, Im-effing-mediately, I blurt out "Oh, I'd do it for a lot less than that, say $10k." I proceed to not get the contract and then go about doing the exact same job for fun.
Funny. Yeah, ha-effing-ha.
