    Is a farce. Now that Asscroft is trying to ban porn and the FAA has jurisdiction over private space travel. What next Amerika?

    So the government is allowing space flights with a license or something. I wonder what NASA is going to say about this cutting into their 600million per flight Space Shuttle racket they've got going on. NASA needn't worry though they've got a moonbeam coming which means (skits In Living Color classic) mo money mo money mo money. Since when does the United States control airspace anyway? I mean I know they'll blow you out of the sky if you launch anything, maybe even label you al Qaeda or something.
