Does he not see himself as others see him? I noticed that myself when watching the show.
My guess. If he’s like me, his facial hair went gray first, so he started dying it. Then the rest of his hair started to go gray, but he decided that it was too much work, or cost, or something to dye it, but he kept doing the stache out of habit. Or something.
Just a reminder, that Brian Wang and I will be on Fast-Forward Radio tonight, at 8 PM Pacific.
This story is very misleading, in that it implies that the only problem with first-stage vibrations was astronauts’ inability to read displays. The solution described here does nothing to address the actual structural issues in the second stage that the resonance creates. That was no five-dollar fix.
…where it doesn’t exist, and the racist divisive “progressive” scumballs who promote it.

Some thoughts from Paul Hsieh on man, technology and the state of nature.
Congressional Democrats are gearing up to cover for the lying and corruption of an administration official:
Last night, Cummings released a
95 page waste of paper and taxpayer moneyreport, alleging that top Justice Department officials did not authorize the program, despite evidence showing otherwise. The report tries to pin the blame back on a few “rogue” managers in the ATF Phoenix Field Division. This is the same argument we’ve heard since the beginning of the scandal: it was a local operation, nobody important knew anything.
It worked pretty well in the Clinton administration, since the media aided and abetted them. They’ll try again this time, but I think that it may be a little tougher, with the new media watching.
I’ll be on tomorrow night with Brian Wang, to discuss moon colonies.
