No word on HOW he'll restore them, though -- or how much.

Quoted on NASAWatch: "It seems to me that instead of going away quietly with what we were given, we ought to be emboldened to ask for more," said Jill Tarter, SETI Institute.

Now that's a reasonable response. I don't know where the money is coming from either, but darned if the community isn't going to ask for even more sad.gif
