   You need to enter the event through the npc gaga. Ask him to take you to the maple tree, from there you can either help by adding sunshine to the maple tree through gaga. Or you can sit and wait till it grows to full size and race others to swipe a golden maple leaf.

   Look at the tables of honors and awards recognized for adding points! The NRC claim that “starting in fall of 2005, NRC staff compiled lists of international, national and disciplinary awards in all the taxonomic fields …” so how come in more than 3 years they failed to find the academie des sciences in Paris, the Royal Society of London, and other leading and internationally respected sources of honors – in Cambridge MA alone there are 28 Fellows and Foreign Members of the Royal Society, and those associated with graduate programs are overlooked. Yet the Maple Leaf Farms Duck Research Award is included as Prestigious – doubltess meritorious on some scale, but in all fairness not at the level of the academie des sciences of Paris or the Royal Society of London, or many other awards completely overlooked by the NRC. I thought there was something about not disciminating against people based on nationality and national origin here in the US, but perhaps the NRC thinks it’s above the law as well as courtesy and thoroughness.
