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?

'The scoops are on the way'....

2 comments.
When I came to this board their were 2 posters slinging, posting, uhhhhh typing.(Though because of the massive amount of postings, I was not able to read every post, but the ones I scanned were not on missile defense.)

In honor of today I have decided to taunt no one on this board.

I appreciate the words '1 to bbbuck'. It is nice to know I can post 2 or 3 lines per day in these 5000 total line postings and still be referenced. Not sure what they proves but it is interesting.
Aside to Halloween behavior:Please don't shoot any vandals, fire in the air, once, for dramatic effect, then see what happens.

This will be my only post today, no matter who taunts me.

ok 7 or 8 comments. I got caught up in the day.
oh yea I am not George Johnson.

And vote 'no' on 687 and 'yes' on 698 if you want cock-fighting to continue.

Ok, chic

Got your drift....however, mazza and bbuck do sound like different breeds all together...not necessarily compliments for either of them, of course.

Btw, I like chic moniker better...do you mind

As inane as ever!

Today I am Condiment oriented, (cinammon on my pumpkin pie). I know that eating spicy can effect my Colin but heck you don't celebrate a holiday every day. I wish you would get off my Case. Y? Because important yet secret matters are being transmitted.

Have a nice Halloween!
