the NASA "attitude determines your altitude" poster in your cubicle wasn't enough to make you an astronaut. There is a difference between the unwaivering perserverance that's necessary to be successful at something you're truly passionate about and trying to cover factors outside you control under the opiate that is "attitude determines your altitude" NASA posters (there's a reason they print these suckers fellas..)

hinsight20/20, very well said, it's too bad any virtues of the aerospace program are obliterated by the "NASA culture" and managment practices.

There is no excuse for knowinglylaunching unsafe missions that result in the obliteration of the crews, this isn't the 1960's anymore, and there's no race to the moon anymore either.

I already did, you are about as bright as your namesake

If you are referring to the link you posted on the first page...it contains as much support for what they were saying as it does for what you are saying. So, once again...you spout off as if you are in the factual know...when in reality you have an opinion.

You said there were multiple sourced for your so called "facts"...lets see them.

Furthermore...i'm the brightest bulb you've ever switched on flameboy.

Oh, and for all of the NASA second guessing safety experts out there...did you happen to catch the launch that went off without a hitch today?

You finally got something right. Yes, It did go off without any safety "hitches" Or LCC, OMRSD, or other violations. But of course, you know about all of this, don't you bright boy.

Oh, you mean Launch Commit Criteria or Ops. Maint. Requirement Spec Documentation?

Didn't see that coming did you hot shot?

Still waiting on your "facts" references.

No need to dig for you. It's all available. USA has not been awarded any significant piece on NASA's Constellation program, they are scrambling big time to try and hold on, to no avail. The great experience base that USA brags on comes from the employees they inherited from Rockwell, who by the way, successfully processed 70 plus shuttle launches in addition to the experience gained from Mercury, Gemini and Apollo. Oh, can USA say that? What? You mean they have only existed since 1996? Wow, that's a lot of experience!

I'll bet these guys don't get laid very often

Au contraire. It just irks me that people can come in and pretend to know all the facts acting like asses...when all they have is an opinion. Just taking him to task.

Come to think of it though...it has been over 2 weeks.
