0 Think Pieanne's got this one, Antonia. I think it means there are too many people trying to use the labs, so they have to wait a lab to be free. 0-

0 For much of the research done in the U.S., you have to schedule lab time. There is usually a lot of expensive equipment involved, and everybody wants to use it. Only if you have an experimental plan worthy of being pursued will the administrators grant you lab time. I believe astronomers call it 'telescope time' or 'observation time' or something like that. 02br
