Well did you also notice that the nasa committee on science was chaired by a
military person?

Its always seemed to me that the military want to do their own thing, but in
this case I wonder if its doing it fairly secretly as there is no real
safety ethos at all, and when/if they do man it, it will be a bit like the
shuttle in its safety provision.
I cannot help wondering though if they are not misreading the public mood
here. Although you need safety features etc, it is rather a hazard of the
job to be at risk when you go to pilot a cutting edge vehicle. Nobody is
pulling the wool over eyes of anyone.

So? A position like that needs to have a lot of skills other than
just 'being a scientist'. Not that being a military person and being
a scientist are mutually exclusive.

What leads you to the mistaken belief the military has no safety
ethos?

I cannot at all parse your meaning here.

The stimulus is another directly related cost and/or consequence of
those bogus wars.

The USA needs perpetual war to keep it's (war) economy going.
(Similar to the Nazis pre-WW2) The Russians finally gave up (for
now), so a new "enemy" needed to be found.
Muslims fitted the bill nicely.

Sad thing really.

Let's just hope that the term 'petroeuro' never becomes part of the
vernacular.

Bogus war in Afghanistan after Sept. 11? You're a loon and worth no

Petrocurrency has kept our mutually perpetrated cold-war economy going
and going like the Energizer Bunny, and at first them Russians needed
it worse than we did. It's also called marketeering and/or insider
trading, as well as hording. 6400% inflation in 64 years isn't by
accident or via natural causes.

btw, Iraq oil still can be bulk loaded at as little as $1/barrel,
whereas everything else is profit. Our bogus war made certain that
its artificial value never drops below $50/barrel (at least that was
the plan going in).

Your 'petroeuro' or petrocurrency is noted.

Because of folks exactly like yourself, the stimulus loot became


another directly related cost and/or consequence of those bogus wars.

One thing does lead to another, and another. Without 9/11 we'd be
paying less than $1.50/gallon, we'd be trillions in the black and
those Zionist Nazi Rothschilds would still be trillionaires.

crude oil can be replaced in the US with coal to gasoline plants.

the trouble with crude oil is sending all of our wealth to other
countries like the mid east.........
