Now it'll be up to your kind to kill the dream again.

They will fail. Were not going to let them kill it this time.
No fricking way. I have been following space efforts
a long time now. Ive waited a long time for this.
Its different this time. I can feel it in my gut.
Dont worry, their are millions of us ready to support this
endeavour. Get ready to go to work and start pushing
hard and let congress and the senate know. Join
National Space Society, Join the Planetary Society.
Donate space books to schools.

The critics must understand one thing............

The cost is greater if we *do not* explore space.
We would be denying what we are, we would deny fundamental
truths of human nature to explore.

I submit that *that* cost is too high to pay,

we all know where that road leads. We must explore, excercise those
muscles, push outward and accept challenges. Great risks and
challenges bring great rewards. As pilots that should be obvious.

President Bush is right. I agree with everything he said
today, his speech spelled it out perfectly and Im going to help in
whatever way I can. And I do not stand alone. There is going
to be great support for this from a lot of very smart and brave
people. That is how I know it will not fail.

Great links here, great articles.
