Technology has always found its greatest consumer in a
nation's war and defense efforts. Since the last attempts at a
"Star Wars" defense system, has technology changed
considerably enough to make the latest Missile Defense
initiatives more successful? Can such an application of
science be successful? Is a militarized space inevitable,
necessary or impossible?

Cantabb - I haven't got you on "ignore"
exactly - but I am dealing with your (often boring) posts in
a batched way.
I know. Despite, as you said, a suggestion to you by your
esteemed collaborator, lchic.
Looking for themes - motivations - patterns
- counting cases. There are enough of them that one can look
at what matters to you at the level of statistics -and
discourse, too. Do loop tests to find consistencies. Wonder
about what changes in the postings - and what doesn't.
LOOK for ANSWERS, instead. Answers to two simple questions
asked repeatedly on your activities and your claims for the
past 2+years on MD forum.
Rest is just looking for a way to wriggle out of them
through a self-created mass of irrelevancies.
There have been 182 posting "by Cantabb"
since September 17th - - none before. http://www.mrshowalter.net/Cantabb_Srch_to10_4.htm
Very helpful for those interested to see in one place,
rather than going through pages.
DID you include your own Posts during the same period
??? And their number ?
I think people at different stages Piaget
discusses in The Moral Judgement of the Child might have
different judgements on what Cantabb is doing - and how his
work is and is not "cheating."
ASKING you questions, pressing you for answers is not
"cheating" !
Is this the kind of logic you have been talking about,
taking pride in ?
For myself - I think he's degrading himself
and his employer - but his moral indignation makes it clear
he disagrees.
ALL that because I've ASKED you questions you still can NOT
answer ? Is this what you call "logic" ?
Since you can't seem to focus and your other supporters
seem to know, I've asked them to at least define it [if you
can not], including your esteemed collaborator, lchic.
But with same results.
"[D]egrading himself and his employer" ?? Back to
your poster identification and conspiracies ? Your continued
paranoia !

truth? YES. Click "rshow55" for some things Lchic and I have
done and worked for on this thread.
You don't like questions about who poster are, do you.
By now, they are basic and valid questions.

weird, eh...? [rshow55 collecting MY posts
in ONE link]. but typical...
Well, this is THE thing he likes to do: Search, File,
Retrieve and Post, POST [ad nauseam]. Don't ask why ? or
What he has done with it ? All for his "corpus."
soon you'll become V. Putin or someone
appropriately nasty.....showalter has also hijacked a thread
on Guardian Newspapers in Britain...
Well, that has already started. He's "searching" me;
attaching motives; personal characterizations: "[D]egrading
himself and his employer," "cheating," etc. His growing
paranoia !
thousands of posts...and not one from Anyone
Other Than Showalter...he doesn't even need us, to tell the
truth....he's mentally ill and must be removed from
posting....
He can start it by himself and continue arguing with
himself on the 'strawmen' he creates.
Then, there is this "Mutt-and-Jeff" routine (well
co-ordinasted with his esteemed collaborator and "world
asset," lchic). Rephrasing her, Does her "emperor" have
clothes ????
