The problem is that NASA has developed an entrenched bureaucracy just
like virtually every other program of the federal government. Get more
competitive private sector involvement in aerospace programs and we'll
see lower costs and greater gains. It's sad to see that the NASA that
(purportedly) put men on the moon in the 60s has become a second-rate
space cargo courier, little better than a glorified Postal Service.
As for IDM-ish content, have people heard the Soft Pink Truth album? I
think this shit is hot, sort of like a more Princified Super_Collider,
perhaps. Well, housier than that. Anyway, homo music is some of the best
music.

Subject: [idm] A formal apology (and chance to releive my guilt) about
my rant on NASA
I know Nasa's been hurtin' for funds lately and I shouldn't knock'em, I
just hope some new technology will emerge shortly (maybe feild
propulsion)
because if the guidance and safety systems could take a larger chunk of
the
cash than they do today (instead of the money going to massive amounts
of
fuel) then we'd have greater control over the safety of the crew.
