Science
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?

16442 of 16449) ultimately TRUTH outs : TRUTH has
to be morally forcing : build on TRUTH it's a strong
foundation
For the record -- partnering Bob Showalter:
He and I have talked on the phone for one-two hours most
days since Mid-2000 with respect to further pushing the
boundaries of knowledge.
Bob is a super-sharp intelligent man with interests that
rainbow and then complete the 360 circle.
It's obvious from postings (above) that this board has been
loaded with paid-staffers, of entity/agency over past years,
who have teased from Showalter insights into his work -- on
the one hand, sitting at the feet of the master, so to speak,
whilst deriding him. This shows respectful interest combined
with blatent arrogance.
Showalter says the Cold War isn't over .... this thread is
an illustration of his nation's dilemma ... a move to truth or
continue its freeflight fall in world-opinion-stakes?
Showalter uses 'his name' and gives personal contact
information.
Those setting out to undermine his credibilty and standing
in the immediate posts above are WAY WAY WAY off the mark and
WAY WAY WAY out of line. They hide in the darkness of shadow
rather than stand in the sun.
Which raises the question WHY WHY WHY ..... along with WHAT
WHAT WHAT are the entrenched interests they wish to hide and
protect ???
It's the USA that needs to look to itself and work through
current national thinking processes with the mind's eye on
quality improvement.

Your 'elegiac' testimonial soars beyond the expected
heights of fancy.
I wasn't looking for reality and "Truth," and I was NOT
disappointed. Devotion like this doesn't need such 'niceties'.
One could question (and laugh at) your every single statement
(above), but -- been there, done that -- many tmes !
Now, not the time or the place.

Cantabb - rides pillon on the soundwave of an echo.
but thread readers will ask
Who are you? What's your name? Contact information?
Faceless - nameless opinions are weightless and worthless
in real world terms.
