Missile Defense

Technology has always found its greatest consumer in a nation's war and defense efforts. Since the last attempts at a "Star Wars" defense system, has technology changed considerably enough to make the latest Missile Defense initiatives more successful? Can such an application of science be successful? Is a militarized space inevitable, necessary or impossible?

Can we do a better job of finding truth? YES. Click "rshow55" for some things Lchic and I have done and worked for on this thread.

Keep grinding, guys.

Suggestion: Search "treasonous disregard."

http://www.mrshowalter.net/Sequential.htm shows an extensive corpus that has gone on a long time.

I think some of the postings by gisterme

http://www.mrshowalter.net/PostsBy_Gisterme.htm - are of renewed interest - because of what we now now know about the Iraq war.

On missile defense - if anyone actually wanted to get things to closure - no forum can be the place for it. But patterns that could work have been much discussed on this thread.

Some issues - beyond a point - do take staffing to respond to. Including these postings - definitely related to missile defense - that set out a pattern that could close.

The question of "who is gisterme is getting more interesting - and more and more people with power and independence are taking positions where it may be answered.

There is a question closely connected to " what did he know - and when did he know it?"

It is "what did he say - and when did he say it? "

"Statements on frequently important subjects are interesting." -rshow55

The question of "who is gisterme is getting more interesting - and more and more people with power and independence are taking positions where it may be answered.

You might as well refer to the question of who gisterme was, since you scared him away with your cyber-stalking, you psycho. Where is your evidence that anyone but loonie has even seen your ramblings, let alone "taking positions"?

- Oh, I know - you could tell me but then you'd have to kill me. Funny.
