Werther - I was one of those SAGE controllers in the 60's, and we all belonged to NORAD - North Ameerican Air Defense command.

Bob
I have been wondering for a number of years, prior to 911, what ever happened to NORAD, as we haven't seemed to have any US air defense for many years now.

Bob, as you are younger, and more familiar, perhaps you know.

NORAD is alive and well and evolving. But the threat has evolved from hordes of Soviet Bombers to single ICBM's launched from rogue nations. Until Sept 11 that is. Now NORAD has been retasked to construct and control a defense to counter the hijacked airline threat. In my opinion, that is an impossible job.
