Maybe someone could forward the above article, or one like it to Mr. Thomas.

EDIT: I just did and you can too mthomas@orlandosentinel.com

I agree the man is mistaken on multiple counts. But lets not spam his inbox with dozens of email saying the same thing. ZFlash has already indicated the link to him. I, for one, would be really annoyed if the same article showed up in my inbox 50 times.

CD isn't about forcing information onto people, it is about making it available to them.

It's available to him, now let's just leave it at that.

Sorry for the ramble, I just really don't like the mob mentality.

I was not encouraging a mob on the man's inbox. I was merely pointing out how I thought he was mistaken and a way for others if they deemed it necessary to do so as well. As far as whether he thought he was mistaken I can tell you that his viewpoint has not changed.

I think many people have taken the wrong perspective to this article. They are vastly overstating what he said.
I don't agree with him entirely, but he came NOWHERE CLOSE to calling NASA "useless." He's saying their are problems with how NASA is being run, its current agenda, and its spending. The author is guilty of some overstatement and hyperbole, but just because that upsets you is no reason to throw away the points and issues he raises.
Do I agree with all of his points? No.
Am I upset with his oversimplification of many programs? Yes.
Is he calling for the destruction or privatization of NASA? No.
