Present budget too large
Strategy: Get grant funded, cutting as necessary.
Write additional, focused grants (almost immediately) to assist in development (DoE is an especially likely target since they fund lots of small animal PET stuff; NIH for PEM application? Other?).
Story must be good!
Silicon packaging and timing especially are still huge issues! Reviewers were skeptical last time when we reported 17ns FWHM; with 200ns fast shaper now it's ~80ns FWHM!

And for the body of the proposal
