lets get back on point, shall we. Space exploration is valuable, period for what we learn while doing the exploration and what we learn while preparing to get there. Human and robots both have their advantages and disadvantages and should be used in a complimentary fashion. A robot will miss features and paterns that a human will see. The human is versatile enough to respond in new and creative ways.

Space also has potential resources that can be mined and used on earth – space for earth.

I don’t ever want to see another comment like ” billions for space … solve problems on Earth” unless it is backed up by hard analysis. How many billions ? 500, 100, 10, 1 versus how many will be helped and how much per person helped. Pitting one againts the other is a false argument. We are strong and capable enouogh to do both.

It all depends on what the definition of “is” is

It was not “leaked”.

Foust does not care about inaccuracies on his website.

Some how I think there is more than one way to define “Leaked.”

“Instead of behaving like an obnoxious twit you could simply point out the likely clarification of things, one way or the other, when the Obama campaign releases their official (or new) policy.”

And name calling serves what purpose? Please enlighten me in this regard. If you were trying to make a point about online demeanor you just lost it.

“Completely unrelated whatâ€™s with your â€œcousin Hermanâ€ nonsense? And youâ€™ll simply sound far too snotty if you address me as Mr. ^_^”

You were obviously not alive in the 1960s (or listening to the radio). As for your gender (Mr. vs Ms.), that was not obvious from your anonymous posting.

Completely unrelated what’s with your “cousin Herman” nonsense? And you’ll simply sound far too snotty if you address me as Mr. ^_^

Mr/Ms Hermit:

By all means remain anonymous. I am more familiar with the concept and the reasons than you are.

Say hello to your cousin Herman for me.
