    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?

For the amount of work and expense the NYT has gone to keeping me down - you could have solved my key problems long ago. And they are problems a lot broader than my own interest.

What do you think you were doing that NYT did NOT like ? [Couldn't be the forum abuse which did in fact continue]. What was it specifically that NYT was trying to keep you down for ? Anything specific ? Any evidence ?

As I see it, YOU have been doing a pretty good job of "keeping [yourself] down" -- You don't know what you are doing; you are imagining non-existent people behind posters; you are obsessed with conpiracies (without any obvious hint or reason); you have NOT achieved anything of substance, despite your outlandish claims; all you seem to be able to do is to "search, save, file, retrieve and post and re-post" (the same thing over and over); and you're too wrapped up in your personal problems to be able to focus on anything else.

Given this, why would any one in the right mind spend an iota of anything to try to do what you are doing quite efficiently, by yourself ? All one could do is to sit and watch.

Your delusion !

Cantabb: Why don't you just be nice and do what Jorian did for some peace and quiet ....

Only if I knew what !

You mean as in Jorian's last post? : "...I've been tempted to find a pay phone and call your a$$ up and give you a lecture you'd not soon forget, with the above information featuring prominently in the subject matter. If I can remember to do so when I'm on the road somewhere far from home, it may happen yet. "

I'll continue to resond to comments directed to or about me.

But he's the one who's trying to weave me in his conspiracy theories. He's not looking for peace and quiet, despite his plans to remain "quiet."

The earth spin rate is slowing 2 msc/day as evidenced by the additon of a leap second every 500 days - James "I failed math" Nienhuis

as long as you can stand your ground,

making sure we hold you down

Cantabb got it. Why didn't you, Robert?

Can we do a better job of finding truth? YES. Click "rshow55" for some things Lchic and I have done and worked for on this thread.

Let's see. My "conspiracy theory" is that some of you guys work for The New York Times.

Well, it doesn't seem such a far-fetched notion.

If you don't - there may be some interesting stories to tell in other ways.

Though I am impressed with this post from Jorian319

" I do not work for, have no affiliation with and no obligation to The New York Times."

Will that suffice? ***sheesh!*** You didn't believe me the first time - what's different?
