		<description><![CDATA[Diomidis Spinellis wrote earlier today about the EUs planning priorities for research and how he thinks that&#8217;s bad for innovation. I agree with his thesis, but I find his complaint somewhat naïve. Let me explain myself: If I could only give one reason to the question &#8220;What&#8217;s wrong with EU Funded Research?&#8221;, I don&#8217;t believe [...]]]></description>
