Nick shrugged. "Government is quick t' cut fundin', but they ain't exactly on top o' the ball when it comes to gettin' rid of stuff. We still have stuff sittin' around from World War II that they haven't gotten around to gettin' rid of. Could be a year. Could be a few decades."

"You too." Reed nodded back and went back to his table. He turned the ray back on and went back to jotting down notes as he did before.
