"ArsTechnica has published a story taking a look at NASA's theoretical rescue plan for the space shuttle Columbia. The ambitious yet plausible plan was included as part of the report prepared during the investigation after the shuttle was lost during re-entry. I appreciate the author's perspective and his analysis of things as a sys-admin at Boeing he was much closer to the situation than most of us were. I for one would have liked to see the men and women at NASA given the chance to try to pull this one off, but I'm not sure it would have been worth the risk to the rescue team or even possible given the compressed schedule."

Don't forget spending trillions to feed our useless eaters while they make more useless eaters for us to feed -- while inviting the rest of the world to dump their useless eaters here for us to feed, too! The votes must be harvested, after all.

It's nice you can write off most of humanity as "eaters". I am guessing you dont identify yourself as one though.
