date: Fri Oct 12 15:35:06 2001 from: Keith Briffa subject: part c ideas to: Stephen.Juggins@ncl.ac.uk Steve I am IN GREAT CONFIDENCE attaching the Part C section of a proposal that may give a few ideas. It is really important that you don't just copy or reproduce any bits because it is not my proposal and it would be a court case in theory if a similarity was noticed. I have just had a rather heated discussion with more than one colleague and I am not able to send the C part of my own proposal - as this is definitely going to the same jury , and will almost definitely be seen by at least some mutual referees. The area is simply just to sensitive here and so I ask that you appreciate the problem and forgive my not sending that. As I said before , the proposal will have had to get through the first reviewing stage before it would be scrutinized with regard to Part C , and I really believe that the referees would accept the logic of its community value without the usual need for elaborate social context. The way forward is to push the implementation of the PAGES and HOLIVAR agendas . With the others you have I hope the one I am sending will be enough but for GODS SAKE please respect the sensitivity here and destroy the file immediately when finished and please do not tell ANYBODY I sent this.
