Typos. I'm with you on the NASA thing. Th...Bah! Typos. I'm with you on the NASA thing. That's the weirdest list of priorities I can imagine for a NASA Administrator. And to do outreach with Muslim nations to "help them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math and engineering"? That's one of the most patronizing things I've ever heard. Maybe if he had described it as "recognizing their historic contribution..." it would have sounded less condescending. Having said that, I can see no way, shape or form that that should be the NASA Administrator's role. No wonder the space program is in the toilet. (While typing this I keep inadvertently typing NASA as NADA. Freudian slip?)<br /><br />I guess we now know what happened to the world of tomorrow: mission drift.ronniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14044863062652781155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568334561722760329.post-67092588941021878512010-07-06T10:40:13.035-07:002010-07-06T10:40:13.035-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.ronniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14044863062652781155noreply@blogger.com
