Dear Ali,

you have not been selected. Due to US export regulations, I can not give access to CMOS technologies to people from Iran.

WTF? :-|

It is. This guy was from Belgium. But other countries in Europe have already made me some offers...how is it that the sanction just applies to Iranians studying in Belgium?! There are hundreds of Iranians studying for PhD all around the world, and in the US more than any other country...I just don't get this guy :-|
