Ok. Go ahead. Man in a can has failed repeatedly for 20 years to get the general public interested but spend another five, ten or twenty billion or so doing more of it. See how long before NASA has no political support whatsoever.

Whatcha going to do for the first gimmick to get public attention? Send Chris Reeves into orbit? The first transgendered person? The first Hottentot? Clowns juggling whipped cream pies in zero gravity?

You see things the short term. I see things long term. It has not failed for 20 years. I'm talking about human colonization on mars, the moon. You sir are a wimp. A wimp supports robots only in space. A true american would go into space aboard the space shuttle. You must be a lefty.. THey are wimps like you!
