Default Management, mandate, and manned spaceflight

On Fri, 25 Jul 2003 21:57:45 -0500, in a place far, far away, "Paul F.
Dietz" made the phosphor on my monitor glow in such a
way as to indicate that:

When you grow up, you will discover that the value of a life is regularly
measured in dollars. This is done routinely in torts, in making regulations,
and in establishing government policy. This isn't cavalier, it's business
as usual.


Not just business as usual (a phrase that can carry negative
connotions), but business as necessary.
