    If we get serious about having our own means to getting to low earth orbit without relying on the Ruskies I'll be happy ;even if Elon Musk gives us the blue prints . In all seriousness ;the Chinese have already blasted sats. out of orbit . And a military truth has always been own the high ground. I expect his idea could be accomplished with the resources the Air Force has . But this is a SERIOUS national conversation we need to have .

    What conversation would that be? You have been exploring space since the sixties and what, really do we have to show for it?

    You really can't be serious . You do realize that the computer you wrote that on came from technology developed for space travel ? The innovations that came from space exploration are almost too numerous to mention . You ever have an MRI or a CT scan ? NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory developed digital image processing . You know someone who has has LASIK surgery ? Thank NASA . Do you use GPS ?

    I would sure hate to have somebody besides us have a dominant space force, and I don't doubt those somebody's are trying to be dominant in space as we speak.

    Can't afford CBS Access, the only way to see it where I am, but I'm scheming on streaming! The trailers and previews blew me away!

    We know, I know you think it never gets tired, but it does. Actually I'm over it. I agreed with you long ago, the man is an idiot. It says a lot about those who voted for him, but then I thought the same about his predecessor. Nothing changes except the names over the door

    Sitting here in the middle of it as I do Clete, it matters to me both in policy, and affect whose name is over the door. That probably doesn't mean much on a world view of things and for an international reaching site its not all that diverse as far as posters go. Personally I respect highly your views being outside the usual circle, even though I have blasted away at will on you at times. I hope you don't take it personally, as by now you know what an obnoxious a$$hole I can be.

    What? You didn't know that?

    Trying to focus on the positive Tal, It's difficult, but maybe we both have the same objectives we just have different opportunities in reaching them
