If Private Industry had used the dollars spent at NASA, you'd be doing just that!...BUT!....if a Windows OS was used, I'd never set foot in it!:D

Are you refering to the private group that are in the process of building it, or is this something that just got stuck in your fangs and finally got notices when it started to smell. Oh, and why have you been hiding from me. Are you staying with SF and just too busy to join us. I've become jhu deficient.

What the hell happened to SF? I miss the Jhu-Johal-SF triumvirate and all their frolicking in the sunset, their flourishing flickering flicking while afrolicking fairies danced on mushrooms.
