Lost in Dreams

I think we'll just have to disagree on what's the bigger waste of time for him. IMO, what you're talking about having him do sounds more like a head tech's responsibilities than an actual researcher's. Alternatively, I'd expect it more of newer, less established researchers (assistant researchers maybe?) with greater budgetary constraints. Of course, I'm also assuming greater establishment of paranormal research than I expect happens in reality since the GH universe does assume an actual lab/institute affiliation for the SPR and has clear departmentalisation of their staff, not to mention Naru's supposed level of funding.
