Thanks for the encouragement! I read over the report on last year's 
edition of SoC and indeed it looked very competitive.  I did not see any 
of the proposals themselves, but if they are online, I will definitely

I will keep my options open in case this topic does not work out; 
however, I'm sure I'd be able to also draw from the knowledge of the 
group at school as well as from a mentor on your end, which certainly 
can't hurt.
