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 , until you post your identity -
Lchic has a right to be careful with her own.
BUT she is the ONE who demanded that information ! Like
a commandant !
If she's so obsessed with poster IDs and has made all kinds
of nonsensical implications, I do also have a "right" to ask
her the same.
You could call me - and I'd be happy to get
you in contact with her. I talk to her most every day -
joyfully - seriously - most days for more than an hour - and
I still have some problems about her identity . But for me,
that's acceptable. Though I have some problems with it, in
spots.
Didn't you suggest the same before ? YOU had asked me
before to call you ; and suggested that I TALK to her !
NO disrespect, to you or her -- NOT my way, as I
mentioned you before. But I also know that's your way as you
mentioned countless times here -- Long daily/almost-daily
conversations with lchic for the past 3+ years (lchic
quibbling and waffling noted).
Besides, I have seen the reports of telephone conversations
between you and at least 2 other regulars and one face-to-face
meeting. Ask Lou Mazza and WRCooper, instead !

If Showalter's repeated himself on this
thread at anytime ... it might indicate that 'threaders'
hadn't got it ....
Ah, NOW you tell us ...
I thought he just likes his "Loop Test" too much. Most of
the time he initiates it himself. Rote machine !
Didn't he comment on there being a
statistical aspect to learning
And you believed that ! Like everything else -- as 'gospel
truth' ! Your 'emperor' has an interesting wardrobe !
"ultimately TRUTH outs" : IF you let it !

Cantabb ... you've skipped ahead of the
logic!
Sorry, didn't see any in your post ! Was there some ?
"ultimately TRUTH outs" --- sit, wait and pray !

ultimately TRUTH outs : TRUTH has
to be morally forcing : build on TRUTH it's a strong
foundation

to guard; see wer-3 in Indo-European Roots + robe, garment;

Cantabb .... logic ... of course there was logic, but you
missed the punch line

Don't 'look' for the punch line -- you won't see it
but
If you keep going round and round the loop IT WILL creep up
on you
