  1. Re:I see your bullshit and raise you a horseshit on Senator Calls on NASA to Service Hubble · · Score: 2, Interesting


    A four year delay does not seem that bad but its effect is culminative. Where we are now in terms of understanding what is out there and what we are doing out there is further pushed back. The 60's seemed to be the decade of exploration and learning. We should be on the moon or mars by now, issues such as political games and money have already delayed our advancement. This delay would only add more to the pile of 30 years already accrewed.
    However this delay is never seen nor tangible... thus pushed aside for later to our detriment.

    For starters but with regard to the 27 January 1967 entry. That accident was due to poor work on that unit.

    Well I don't have links at hand, but we do know that some of the biggest spaces accidents have been caused by companies who have offered the lowest bid for contracts given by NASA. I'll go do some googling...

    With regard to the last slashdot story. I think allowing private corps access to any sort of space venture is bad news. But we all know it is going to happen anyway.

    What I hate about that so called solution (dropping the food) is that not only do you piss off the staff who see you do it. But it is criminal damage and to me, on a more important level. You are wasting perfectly good food, also doing it in a world where others are starving, they might even kill you for your place in the queue. So if you are going to do it, just give the food to a member of staff and tell them why. Just don't destroy the food.
    I work part time in a supermarket, and I wish customers would hand me the food rather than leave it on the floor to get warm and ruined. I might be the exception as well because I care, but to me its the right thing to do. Like I said, there are other people who go without, those who wouldn't do such a thing so easily either. Just remember how well off you are in that situation please.

    At least you are not one of those fuckers who just leave it on the floor, therefore wasting perfectly good food. Or putting chilled stuff in the freezers thinking thats okay when it isn't. I mean, there are people are in this world who would kill, to take another persons place in a queue.
