the housemaster, encik ravi, was telling us today about the costs involved in conducting airgrading here. each hour of flight costs $247.xx dollars. room and board if really cheap at $37 dollars, but he says they make up for it in other charges. the total cost of sending one student here for a month - stuff life flying time, board, air ticket, allowances, insurance etc - costs about $11000. average of 200 or so students a year.

hmm. i might have just spent your dad's money on beer. ;-p
