    Missile Defense

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?

Read Debates, a new Web-only feature culled from Readers' Opinions, published every Thursday.

Were there consistency in NYT reporting, this news hound of the labyrinth, might have got inside the mind of the Labrador

Another disjointed rambling. Just a few things worth a comment:

......A problem I'm having, guys, is that it is hard to summarize while fencing - and especially so while laughing . . .

Just "A" problem, as you noted, but not the major or the only one !

People may be muddled - and I may be more muddled than many.

Really ?

It takes people a while - but we can get useful results - and break "codes" and "mysteries".

Hope your're not breaking into a 'vault' to get the "gems" of wisdom you let us share! You found anything on MD yet?

We're now at a point where - for people in power to keep that from happening - they have to say:

Really ? What make/break "point" ?

. NO FAIR connecting those dots in interconnected ways - and keeping at it enough for focus !

Run that by again !

The nature of that fight - which is an essential fight in our time - is getting clearer. The fight is being clarified, and fought, on this thread.

What "fight" ? Your personal one ?

If all this text was reorganized for a purpose carefully enough - often enough - a lot of it, I believe - would look very good.

What would be that "purpose" ?

For instance, the "collected works of Fredmoore." and the collected works of Lchic , too.

Not to mention, "Collected Works of Cantabb."

All this must keep you VERY busy ! No wonder you get tired and have to rest so often.

Your Fisking makes me ROTFLMAO.

PSOT IDYOT!

Cantabb,

Your Fisking makes me ROTFLMAO.

PSOT IDYOT!

Hostility from Schoolyard/Barnyard.

Why don't you put yourself out of misery : Put me on your "ignore" and STOP whining [I know NOT unusual in a school yard].

ASK 'rshow55' or 'lchic' to show you how to do it !

What blind LOYALTY to your 'idol', rshow55 !

Anything "constructive" from you on KAEP-MD connection?
