Honestly? Take a solid chunk of the credit. An idea is only as good as the pitch when the person on the other side has to sift through x^2 applications.

It was one of those projects that all you have to do is bring it to the right people's attention and they get excited to help. I'm pooped right now on grant writing and honestly not enthused on the prospect of getting more but we've been wanting to expand and of course that means more grants. Just, uh, the tap runs a little dry in republican administrations, this one we expect it to be shut off almost entirely.
