To summarise my thoughts post the discussions today, I began the day
with 0/-1. I end it with 0/0 on both the questions. I can see both the
value and the expenditure. I would just suggest lets make sure we take
all the right steps to ensure we are able to get a high value for the
expenditure (Value being defined in terms of the various benefits
articulated in this thread).
