Nowhere near that easy, of course, any more than cloned dinosaurs are a threat to amusement parks. Human and viral genetic engineering and virology...

I'll just add, in the first episode of the show it's established that there were political and military reasons for taking over a repurposed facility...

I was mistaken. To make my point clearer, I'll say even if human safety were not a concern, even if we never set foot on Mars, my view is that...

Which would make both radiation shielding and thermal control less complicated than windows.

I ended up tracking down some L.A. Law for my article yesterday; wow, some of that has not aged well.

One of my hopes of the After Time is to take the kids places around Western Washington and let them get to know their state the way we got to know...

With good reason.

If we could do genetic therapy this easily . . . .

As I mentioned earlier, I would go up to $10,000 for that type of short suborbital hop. Mind you, I doubt they could make money with the SS2 on...

Well, "So you're saying" and "But what you really meant to say is". Telling instead of asking, at least that's how it comes across to me. How...

Yes, cost aside, before I’d be willing to fly in one, I would want to see a good number of successful flights without any worrying anomalies. I’m...

Sidenote, from the article: Bold mine. To be fair, we've really only been solving the mysteries of viruses since 1898, not all of human...

To you specifically, to the world in general. It pushes my buttons like nothing else to have someone reinterpret my statements and add their own...

Is that experience talking? :)

Being bullied by adults was such a "routine" part of my childhood that I was surprised anyone thought it odd. But I was disbelieved every time I...

A widespread problem of its own... people get defensive about even the most rational fact-based critiques of their beliefs.

Neutrino production is harder and less energy efficient that EM. Neutrino detection, harder than EM detection. But both travel at C. Now if you...

Why is this such a big deal to you? We run experiments all the time. We want to test our models. "We didn't miss seeing lightning in our brief local...

Stop putting words in my mouth. If you have questions about what I mean, ask me what I mean.

Well, in Star Trek the station has "replicators", and a habitable world like Earth nearby. I don't know that regular supply shipments are necessary...

Sorry, but if I *had* a ticket, I wouldn’t give it away. But I am not interested in spending $250,000 or whatever they’re saying now for one.

Sure, but I'm writing about Vonetta McGee!

The understanding I have--and bear in mind I didn't actually talk to the guy myself, though Graham thinks he's moving into a house a couple of blocks...

I'm very happy for you both!

Well, I’ll gladly take all of your tickets, then...

I have to say that I now have almost no interest in them. When they started up I was interested since it was a rare example of commercial space...

I got an appointment for my vaccination on the 2nd.

Yes, I was thinking the same thing. I’d be happy to see another Newspace innovative competitor to SpaceX, but I’ll wait and see if they can actually...

I hope you’re better now!

:lol: That would be funny if they marketed them that way. Now with a 4.7 mm wavelength!
