This is why large corporations send in security people to escort the recently laid off from their desks to their cars.

Since NASA has changed its focus away from space exploration and research to the promotion of Islam, I can see why they would want to purge the agency from any signs of modernity. When will the women of NASA be required to wear hijabs and burqas?

What does the story say I cannot get any where with this keyboard I got off them.

Here is where they sell them.

At the PBS network HQ I worked at a few years back had some large plasma TVs in wheeled cases for field productions and other stuff no one cared to be involved in.

Two of them stayed in a locked equipment room. Somehow at least one of the TVs walked away but the case stayed behind. No one ever bothered to check the case so there was no telling when it was escorted out. It would have taken two people.

The answer to the problem: Make the end user sign for the equipment. If it comes up lost, the end user pays for it.

Folks working out their own “severance”? To the extent that it’s not available to Muzzie outreach, more power to ‘em! What a sad day. We’re hanging up our pride and joy in museums.

We need to manage this NASA money and equipment better so we can continue to pursue the non-existent proof that God didn’t create the universe and life. Or is it for military supremacy?

Our space program has become a giant hole in space we poor money into.

This is minuscule compared to what contractors, subcontractors, and employees have stolen from NASA over the decades.

NASA argues the lost items are mostly old and unused. They also say that many items they list as lost are more likely still somewhere at Kennedy Space Center.

mostly old and unused.--???

...somewhere at Kennedy Space Center.---???
