Default The aerodynamics of a towplane in a kiting glider situation

Kennedy said "we choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, NOT because hey are easy but because they are hard."

I remember that speech well, and have listened to it a number of times over the years. It galvanized and inspired America to take the challenge, and it also inspired Congress to fund the space program. It was one of our Nation's finest accomplishments and well worth every penny, in my mind. But I wasn't even 10 years old, so I couldn't contribute either expertise or funding.

So, if you can't contribute expertise, can you at least contribute funding? I am sure we can find someone with the necessary skills and expertise. But they won't do it for free. 2G says he'll do it if we start by sending him a million bucks. Maybe there is someone who will consider the problem for less.

Simply pointing out a problem and demanding a change in no way constitutes a solution. If you feel so strongly, help fund a solution.
