And if indeed it is to be insisted that the tech/ financial models have 
to demonstrated first, it is not an invitation to go to the one 
international agency that has the money and some tech resources to 
attempt this kind of a thing - the ITU. But that is not acceptable 
either, right! One cant be putting completely un-doable conditions on 
the 'other party' and then say, see you are not able to do it and so you 
dont deserve what you seek.
