No Red Space Menace

dr.o@xxxxx made the phosphor on my monitor glow in such a way as to
indicate that:

A space race will ensue pretty quickly once the Chinese catch up with the
U.S. Mark my words!!

For now, the Chinese are decades behind the U.S. but if the U.S. stands
still, it will eventually be overtaken. Then, the U.S. will have to make a
decision to allow the Chinese to overtake it or to put up a fight.

Let the new space race begin!!!

Weak arguments aren't rendered more compelling with the use of single,
let alone multiple exclamation marks...

You're missing the point, Rand. These kind of things have nothing to do with
logical arguments.
