Re: Diane, what IS your involvement in rocketry?

but when fairness is enforced by a select few.

see the problem. on a small scale (select few) what is fair is RELATIVE (hence why most tax breaks benifit the rich and NOT the middle class etc..)

As you enlarge who decides what is fair (with some oversight to prevent a run away etc..) you LEVEL OUT what is truly FAIR.

Oddly Enough the ideal governemt would be a MERGER of the cold war. Communism (as originally envisioned) and Capatilism with a STRONG push of FREEDOM mixed in. and all this controlled by the PEOPLE as a whole. NOT a select few.

the NATURE of getting into political power means you pretty much NEED to already be RICH to do so (go ahead and try to run for a major office where you would have some real national power)

unless you got lots of money.....

and off course money tends to look out for themselves (its human nature) the objective is to get someone in the MIDDLE to be this person so that FOR THEMSELVES also happens to be FOR the majority of the population.

Insurance should be as automatic as anything else that comes with citizenship. with our technology it is inexcusable for anyone to have to PAY for insurance (like we do now)

the reason things covered by insurance is so expensive (every tried to pay for something without insurance) is BECAUSE of the insurance system in the first place.

Chris Taylor

and you think you do ?

really now. no flaming etc.. Seriously. I read YOUR posts and the websites YOU publish and you think you sound like the most stable person in the world.

One thing I am is very strong willed. Especially when my FREEDOM is threatened (ala patriot act etc.. and everything else since 9/11)

9/11 will be remembered. remembered as the last day the united states of america had any chance of remaining a Nation of the Free.

actually a little less gut weight would do me just fine and move the CG in the right direction as well.

Who cares - what are you the grammer police? The point was not missed.

I have not read a single website of hers or any posts in other newsgroups so I have to take it on faith that elsewhere she is different in character than she is here. Other groups have different dynamics anyway.

But here I have to be honest. I find her thoughtful and on-topic. That could change, but so far, it's true.

Oh no, you've given Chris another soapbox...

He certainly doesn't. I've met Chris and he's an interesting, if sometimes overly enthusiastic, guy.

Nice, if probably unintentional, pun.

Gesture. Voila. Brant. Stine. Arcas. Lose.

I would be the first to admit that I respond differently to people such as Chris in other forums then I respond to something interesting and serious such as RMR.

What can I say? I'm a bad, bad girl

Despite the trolldom and wackos here, rmr has actual content.

You are forgiven :)

Jerry

I was not asking your opiniion.

I was asking his.

Your opinion is not relevant to me because your opinion is tainted by the fact that you only have what he has presented to you in the limited scope of time you have been aware of him.

I can sense the cold, suspicious stares...

Hey, I met Harrison Schmidt once. He is involved in rocketry. ;)

Guys, guys. Do you mind if I take on the "fresh meat" for a few rounds. I know that he/she's a troll, but I've got a little time to kill. >;-)

Too late....

Heh heh Mark..... Welcome to the club.

Diane realizes when he/she's dealing with intelligent adults, then quickly pulls the blanket over it's eyes to avoid the inevitible thrashing that he/she/it will be dealt.

I guess that discretion IS the better part of valor. ;-)

You two EARNED your place in that club. She was the one being reasonable.

Shocking for an rmr newbie, eh?

Jerry

Oh yeah, he/she was being reasonable....for a troll, that is. Maybe, since you two are such good buddies now, he/she will give you a tour of the underside of the bridge. ;-)
