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?

truth? YES. Click "rshow55" for some things Lchic and I have
done and worked for on this thread.
A hyper-expensive path to take - for which a few arguments
can be made - if it worked. Interdiction, hard as it is - or
enforcement of internatioan law - hard too - are both more
workable than our MD programs - given the faintest competence
from the missile builders.

Psychwarfare, Casablanca - - - and terror # 380 http://talk.guardian.co.uk/WebX?8@@.ee7a163/413
Yesterday evening, the NYT forums shut down for "scheduled
maintenance" - shortly afterward called "urgent maintenance" -
and when I rechecked this morning, eight postings had been
removed.

On reposting a piece of what had been deleted on the NYT MD
forum- I found that http://www.mrshowalter.net/a_md00100s/md310
was blocked so that clicking the reference to it didn't work
through the NYT thread - but did, a while ago, work here.
(perhaps this link was blocked because of 312 and 315 by
"becq" - who I believe was Bill Clinton )
http://www.mrshowalter.net/a_md00100s/md328
was also blocked in the same way - used to work here - but
does no longer.
These references - from Sept 27 and 28, 2000, can still be
accessed from http://www.mrshowalter.net/calendar1.htm
as of now.

The deletions say a good deal about the probability that
gisterme is, indeed, PTUS.

Almarst , no one has to believe - without checking.
And checking in expensive. But sometimes, not checking
is even more expensive.

The postings that were removed from this thread
yesterday are reposted on Psychwar #381 http://talk.guardian.co.uk/WebX?8@@.ee7a163/414
I think that the references to Milgram's study, from
Lecture Notes: Introductory Psychology by Prof. Evan
Pritchard http://www.uwinnipeg.ca/~epritch1/social98a.html
includes this: are particularly interesting. Those notes
also have a succint writeup of Jonestown. Trust can be
misplaced.
