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?

Formatting's not right -- but with Mark Heuman's wonderful
help I'm working to "publish" a CD that archives this thread,
from the beginning, with some collected searches and comment.
Eventually with a search facility, and other things useful for
"connecting the dots." Here, not exactly as it appears, but
with the content, is the index page, as now:
M. Robert Showalter: Missile Defense Archive

I'll try to get into contact with the copyright holders
with significant stakes -- and try to work something out that
makes sense -- giving them free use of the disk editions that
use their material -- promising not to use the disk for
commercial purposes without notifying them - - and perhaps
some other things. I believe that this can be done in a way
that is fair to all concerned, and that sets good precedents,
rather than bad ones.
I'd be proud for the chance to get a copy of this archive
disk into the hands of all major politicians in America (and
some in Europe and Asia) if I could. That won't be possible.
But some things might be.
I think the disk will be useful in a number of ways.
One way is in discussion of "collecting, connecting and
correcting of dots".
