I just attended a bunch of presentations by interns in the Develop Program at NASA. My God!!!
The advances that we've made due to the work of NASA is beyond my scope of understanding, but let me just say, I saw brilliant young people who worked with the scientist of NASA and used and improved the satelite technology we all paid for, and they were working on solving problems for everything from soil erosion and crop rotation in Uganda to salinity in the Mississippi River threatening our water supply.
That's what pisses me off more than anything about the "effing" tea-baggers...It's the shortsightedness, stupid
