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?

Didn’t you see the link to my exchange with
him on it in “Science in the News” (May, 2003). He
demonstrated his ignorance on this too. He didn’t think
Letterman had a right to joke about NYT -- nO free speech
for Letterman. But he’s your loyal follower.
Poor Canthorn ... confused as usual. I have a right to an
opinion about Letterman and indeed about you too. Stop me why
dont you. Don't just lie to save face .. cheap shots as usual.

So Letterman is Rshow's follower ... typo-man?

Robert, you do have the right to defend yourself. I'm
pleased to see you did. Well done.

Showalter made an error in not believing his opponents were
just as or more stubborn and determined as himself.....

If this is your idea of a job "well-done", I hope you never
have to choose a defense attorney....

done and worked for on this thread.
Error ? Well maybe - I figured that eventually
people would believe enough of my story that I could do the
things that I was trained to do in the first place.
If you guys don't stop me - I may have a chance of doing
the things I've been working on - solar energy and clean
water, for example.
And some differential equations stuff.
Stubborn and determined foes can stop anyone.
But why would anyone try to stop inocuous little old
me ?

And I still think that things would sort out better
for NYT if they'd meet with me.
I'm signing off . Had a computer crash, and little sleep,
last night.
