My rant yesterday came off rather bad, but after reading everyones post I felt the need to apologize. This was totally the wrong move. To be seen as unintelegint for beleiving things could be much better than they are (and for my horrible spelling) is quite funny as I was really expecting alot more people would relate to what I was saying. I realize it wasn't the best way to say it. So I should apologize for the way it sounded. But I can't beleive that, with all the advances the world has made in communications and technology (including war technology) that we haven't come up with anything better for space-travel. I know it probably has to do with the lack of government enthusiasm post space race and the lack of money that creates. I was actually hoping that others would beleive that. I was wrong, sending people up in outdated craft is, I suppose just part of the danger. I must have been out of my mind to think that hell, there must be a better way to send someone to space than strapping them to a giant bottle rocket with a guidance system. Again, just part of the danger. I guess, just like anything else once we find something that works we should stick with it. Sorry this post is moronic too. (in case you haven't noticed I'm being sarchastic, oh, and I can't spell sarchastic) P P _________________________________________________________________ Protect your PC - get McAfee.com VirusScan Online http://clinic.mcafee.com/clinic/ibuy/campaign.asp?cid=3963 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
