With only about six weeks left until the election, the EU is doing its part to help re-elect Obama<\/a>. The IMF, the EU, and the ECB (the so-called Troika) were to have announced their decision about more bailout money for Greece next month. Instead, they’re delaying the announcement until after the US elections, which makes it abundantly clear what their decision is going to be. They’re going to cut off Greece, letting it go down the toilet, and they’re afraid that the inevitable economic earthquake would damage Obama’s chances. I hope that their cynical attempt to influence US elections fails miserably and that the euro collapses just in time for the election. I’d rather see the eurozone collapse entirely than see Obama re-elected. Not that O’Bomney would be much better.

I decided to expand the basic set of prepared microscope slides for the Life Science kit from 10 to 25 slides and make the slide set optional. That’ll lower the base price of the Life Science kit and avoid forcing people who already have some or all of the necessary slides to purchase something they already have. I’ll also make that slide set an option with the biology kits. I issued a PO yesterday for the first batch of 25 prepared slides. We’ll get the prepared slides in bulk and have to assemble the sets ourselves.
