"Bug" a supervisor?  This is what supervisors are for.  Budget dollars?
Please.  Finding an available bobcat doesn't need budget dollars.
I've asked around: John Rogers; Sandrine; and I'm not getting a number
that comes out to more than 2-3, if that, so I'd like to know where this
10 number comes from.  I obviously haven't heard from Jobi, but John is
pretty well aware of what's in the lab.
