I don't see any mention of the X-33 here
Why is that? Too busy talking politics? It's passe'? It's been done to death? Asking about it is redundant? TBerk |

X-33 was cancelled long ago. About a billion dollars spent with no results. NASA claimed the failure was due to "lack of technology", but that wasn't necessarily the case. Jeff -- Remove icky phrase from email address to get a valid address. |

"T" wrote in message . com... Why is that? It was a flop just like when i flop dead people before i have sex with them. "Alan Erskine" wrote in message ... "Brian Turcotte" wrote in message m... I used to use leather gloves for extrication until a piece of window glass sliced through the glove and cut my hand. It happened when I was checking for clearance of an overturned car at a fire academy drill. Ever since then, I've used a combo of latex gloves under Ringers extrication gloves. There are also Kevlar gloves that i use when i have sex with dead people.
