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?

Bullsh!t. Showlater said he saved the posts. Ask him to check it. You'll see I never said I worked for RCN Chicago. I don't and never have. Are you faking it, or are you and your Madison buddy as crazy as you come across?

She's not faking it. I have the post - and for a reasonable person, the implication was very clear.

The key word is reasonable. That, you and your shadow aren't. You're both nutty as hell. CIA. Condaleeza Rice. Bill Clinton. CIA. Etc. You're delusional.

Get help. I beg you.

You are crazy. Let me repeat. You're certifiable.
