   Another indicator that maybe things might be changing in a more federated direction, although I don't have much confidence in the institutions of the EU to manage or achieve anything.
   
   Some of the ideas also sound similar to things which @aral has talked about.

      @bob @aral I've seen EU funding for beneficial things ranging from drugs #harmreduction, #communityradio and even tracking #bears and #wolves in countries which are currently unused to dealing with them (as they return after being hunted to extinction in previous centuries). Perhaps all strange edge cases/niche projects but they do genuinely seem useful to communities..
