I was just having a little look at some of the data.
50% of the total pool went to three recipients.

The bottom 163 (>90%) recipients between them received 20% of the pool.
10% of the pool was divided between 137 (76%) of recipients.

Without mentioning names, I raised an eyebrow to see that there were 
exactly two, identical value grants ($265,600 each) to two entities with 
remarkably similar names.

At least one of the recipients on the list has no known customers. (How's 
that work?)
