The Federal Government and academic institutions have 

 together built a research enterprise that is without peer in 

 the world. This enterprise has been based on the concept 

 of a partnership, where each partner contributes and each 

 benefits. But, as in any partnership, a periodic and thor- 

 ough reexamination is both healthy and necessary, if only 

 to revalidate the original conditions of the partnership.
