The hybrid motor was tested just last week. One thing about private enterprise: they don't have to waste time.

Ya got that right! I caught that too - I think the X-Prize is going down very soon. This is incredible news.

Right you are. A couple years ago I went to a space confrence in Milwaukee. Most of the people talking were brillant but they had not a clue on what to use space flight for. The one speaker I remember the most clearly was a guy that owned a brickmaking company in Illinois. He talked about how his company was given a little bit of moon dust to make bricks. I can't remember everything he said but I do remember the excitment he had about the experiments. You could see how proud he was about his contribution.
