At least they are doing it without any cost to the tax payers - unlike NASA. Either way there is too much at stake not to be cautious. I wish them luck.
The suits are numb and dont care about your opinion, getting in their face is unlikely scenario, especially since much of the machine is faceless.
The money you spend is their lifeblood. It is quite easy to live without spending money on Disney products. It is quite easy to avoid giving money to specific companies and their sponsors. It is also worth while to let companies know that they are cut off from your money because of who they sponsor, thats different than getting in their faces, thats showing them where you cut off their blood supply. In a town where I live, locals were able to put several businesses which were biggoted or enviroment hostile (they continued to dump food wastes by the lake to "feed" the ducks and seaguls) out of business. This is a scaleable concept. Direct your money where it gives you the biggest bank both practically and ideologically. A million people doing that would rock the establishment. You have to be the change you want to see in the world. Thats BE not SAY. Good Luck All!

I do think its amazing how something this old lasted this long. To be fair, who in 1981 thought that 4,294,967,296 would not be enough?

Perhaps the very act of observation changes the result of observation.
