  2. Hey Rand, I was there, but I didn’t have voice on. So I didn’t know you were talking. Here is some of what I said.

    [17:20] Frankie Antonioni: I think that NASA should purchase launch flights to the Moon, and rent base facilities on the Moon.
    [17:20] Rocket Sellers: what Frankie said
    [17:20] Pooky Amsterdam: do you think because there is so much allocated ehre there is the oportunity for massive waste?
    [17:21] Widget Whiteberry: There is too much graft in the system right now …
    [17:21] Frankie Antonioni: NASA should also have larger prizes.
    [17:21] Pooky Amsterdam: they run the money out of the project to to time over runs? then need more money allocated
    [17:21] Pooky Amsterdam: its a form of budgetry blackmail
    [17:22] Pooky Amsterdam: who is making money on this?
    [17:22] Edconnect Gufler: / Wasn’t there a Falcon One project also ?
    [17:22] Frankie Antonioni: Private industry will be able to do it cheaper, and faster.
    [17:22] Pooky Amsterdam: is it possible to follow the money and see why there is so much waste
    [17:22] Pooky Amsterdam: lockeheed martin is not private ?
    [17:23] Frankie Antonioni: Waste is caused by cost plus.
    [17:23] Frankie Antonioni: You need compitition.
    [17:23] Pooky Amsterdam: taxpayer $ > waste = not good in world of shrinking resources
    [17:24] Pooky Amsterdam: not in schools!
    [17:24] Frankie Antonioni: Then you have prizes. Larger prizes.

  3. Yes MPM you missed the whole thing. But if you read Rand, no you didn’t miss anything you don’t already know.
