1) Rogers set the precedent which Gehman follows.

2) The NASA Administrator appointed Gehman.

3) Bush appointed O'Keefe. Bush is pro-DOD.

4) Congress is controlled by pro-Bush committees.

Have you ever seen those little sighns that bosses have on their desks,
with...

The buck stops here...

On them?

The question is really who's job was it to make sure the resources outside
of Nasa were working properly.

Are you saying that it is NASA's responsibility to verify that USAF
equipment is working properly?

That is what the FRR is for. If the USAF lies about the state of
their equipment, how can NASA be held accountable?

....And besides, we're dealing with the Air Farce. In situations like
this, they'll just shrug it off and go off on their merry little way
as always.

Surely, what it means is, what is the meaning of readiness. So often in the
past, one person's idea of OK is not another's, so, in my view, on something
important, someone at Nasa really ought to have had some way to check these
things out. I'm no expert, but don't they run tests and give some kind of
quantified result on the performance?

....And you know, that's the same sort of bull**** threat tactic his
equally worthless brother throws around. Haven't they learned by now
that it won't work, and that those who live like a troll will be
flamed as a troll?

Bull.

I for one thought the post was no worse than most posted here. Let's try
attacking the post rather than the poster for a change.

We all know where it goes from here. Sensible, reasonable. Lull people into
thinking maybe he's changed his tune, and will actually discuss things. Then
off into well let's see how much **** we can get on the walls. It's attitudes
like yours that have thrown this group into the ****ter. Daniel may not be as
bad as his brother or father, but he's still an unwelcome influence, based on
past behavior. Good people have left this group because too many won't turn
away from this bait and switch tactic.

I think you'll find as many if not more people have left because of people's
reactions to the trolls.

But I'm going to drop this thread as I don't want to continue generating
useless noise.

(Besides, OM will only suggest you killfile me anyway.)

The Air Force method of testing these cameras is to look at the photos at the
next launch. KSC has been plagues with this problem for a long time. The AF
does what it wants to do and at their schedule.

Part of my point. *ANY* reaction to a troll beyond ignoring them only fuels
the fire.

Me too. Just remember what I said about giving Daniel another chance...it'll
only generate noise.

> (Besides, OM will only suggest you killfile me anyway.)

Oh, I wouldn't killfile you. I just think you're way offbase in giving Danny
Boy yet another "go right ahead and fill the group with bull****" chance.
