Einstein (born German, One of Our Chosen People, became a U.S. citizen) being
a good American citizen paid the toll on his own bridge: The Einstein/Rosen Bridge
in order to travel back in time to classical Greece and bring back Plato to assist us
in writing this piece which as Rod Serling would say: "We offer for your consideration."
Rod went along for the ride and is now 'safely' back in the Twilight Zone. We say
"Toda Raba" to Al.
We have a cave and those within perceive imperfect reality - mere shadows of that
which is real. One if the prisoners is lifted out of the cave toward the light; he emerges
and veers right. On two separate plateaus but at the same height is Relativistic and
Quantum Physics (within the Cave are Socrates', Plato's. Aristotle's and Ptolemy's
concepts, "with all due apologies, Plato, but, you shall make a come back in the
universe of Citizen Journalist"). It is hoped that if Quantum and Relativity can be
united, thereby, creating Quantum Relativity, we will be even closer to perceiving
perfect reality and on a higher plateau in the air.
Another prisoner exists and veers left and finds Islam and Gnosticism/Rosicrucian
on the first plateau, above that is Hinduism and Buddhism, still higher and side-by-side
are Judaism and Pauline Christianity, still further up the Jewish-Christianity of Jesus
and most of the Apostles (Pauline Christianity prevailed) and, finally deism (while Islam,
Judaism and Christianity are based on faith, Deism is a philosophy not a theology
predicated on Reason with the following conclusions: 1) There is a God and a heaven,
2) God initiated the process that gave rise to the Cosmos, 3) God created the physical
laws, such as, the law of gravity that enable the universe to operate, 4) God doesn't
violate his own laws - miracles, prophesies, revelations aren't valid, 5) He gave humans
free will and, therefore, observes but doesn't interfere, 6) The cosmos is tailor-made for
humans for if any of the constants in physics were different or if any of the fundamental
forces of nature {gravity, electromagnetism, strong nuclear, weak nuclear} were even
slightly stronger or weaker or, for example, if the proton were even more massive than
the electron than it is, if we weren't the right distance from the sun - the Goldilocks'
Zone - or we didn't have a moon the size that it is - we couldn't exist - - an anthropic
universe, 7) There is a heaven where we are punished and rewarded.
Above the cave and the plateaus is Plato's Heaven wherein exist perfect concepts
(the perfect description and understanding of such things as justice, love, liberty, as well
as perfect forms (when we make a point or a line or a circle with a pencil there is a
little bit of length, width and depth - not so in heaven; a numeral is a representation of
a number - while, we use both terms interchangeably, true numbers - ideas exist solely in
heaven; abstract ideas, heaven of math, eternal/non-experiential, forms exist in God's
mind. Put more simply: Perfect concepts and forms exist in heaven and are known by
our soul there, while on earth, we recollect, some less imperfectly than others, knowledge
of that which our soul had known. Plato's soul and yours is immortal. Non-material/abstract
vs. material perceived thought the senses and ever-changing. Plato's philosophy vs. modern
science.
Our slogan: Fair and Balanced ("Isn't that taken?," Citizen Journalist. Dago Red: "Are you
sure? One thing is for certain: at 'Citizen Journalist Comsats' our attitude is: We report, You
decide." "I thought that we were columnists," utters Rick).
Intelligent people (aka moderates and conservatives) are on a magical mystery tour: trying
to apprehend on understanding of the big and profound questions that have gnawed at us
since we were homosexuals (What? God or Mother Nature forbid!)...oops...Home Erectus.
We would be wise to take a multi-disciplinary approach.
A few years ago, an Israeli physicist Gerald Schroeder (a member of the rare breed of
scientist who believes in God and accepts (some scientists profess to believe in a
scientific concept - that represents sloppy scientific terminology {Kaku leads the pack}; faith/
fact, Belief/Reason. Although, there are those who seek scientific evidence for creation; thus
far scientific creationism is unconvincing) proposed a theory: the universe is six days old
(Bible Time) from the beginning - big bang - looking outward; 15 billions years from the
perspective of us on earth - looking backward. We know that the universe inflated a fraction
of a second after the bang and again when it was half its present age (inflation is the stretching
of space faster than light; no need for cosmic traffic cop - it doesn't violate Einstein who said
that nothing can travel faster than light, he made an exception for space). Universe is expand-
ing; time slows down the faster you move according to Einstein. Scientists estimate the age
of the universe at 13.7 billion - no problem for that number is not yet final and a discrepancy of
1.3 isn't significant.
The mainstream liberal media and mainstream science have largely ignored Gerald - One
of Our Chosen People. He should be spotlighted, have his math and physics challenged,
debated. This is more plausible than UFOs and the paranormal. While a few real scientists
should investigate and debunk UFOs and the paranormal; Gerald's ideas are more serious and
in the nature of science and deserve the attention of several scientists!
He consumed himself in fire, died a demi-god and rose a god. Sound familiar? We're
talking about Hercules.
He was angry and caused a Great Flood, killing all the people, save two who had built
an ark. Sound Familiar? The angry one was Zeus, the number one god. (Many cultures
have flood stories in their mythologies).
Hades, the god, presided over Hades, the place, for the damned. More Greek mythology:
gazing upon the the evil monster Medusa would turn you to stone. Lot's wife looks back
at the evil cities of Sodom and Gomorra in the Bible and is turned to stone.
There are similarities amongst ancient mythologies and with the Bible. The ancients no
doubt shared stories.
Did Paul a 'Greek' Jew mix Jesus' theology with Judaism and Greek philosophy and mythology
creating what became known as Pauline Christianity?
Plato has graciously agreed to extend his visit. To Be Continued...

Continued: "Return to Plato's Cave
by Citizen Journalist and Richard DePersio with Plato
(Reading "Return to Plato's Cave," "In and Out of Plato's Cave" and "Plato's Cave"
are recommended, especially, "Return to Plato's Cave" but not absolutely
necessary; also enjoy: "Masterpiece," "Scorecard," "Radio Show" and "Lipton

We were remiss: Hercules had to overcome ten challenges about half of which
were for the benefit of mankind (you want us to be PC and say, 'humankind,' we
aren't going to accommodate libs {liberals in general and women's libbers - the
old-fashioned term - in particular}). One challenge necessitated that he spend
some time in Hades attempting to secure the release of his wife. Jesus too spent
time in hell prior to ascending to Heaven.
We were also negligent in failing to mention that the 'Great Flood' in Genesis
was likely inspired by a Babylonian epic. The ancients, especially, traveling
merchants would have traveled and shared stories resulting in stories being modified
over time.
Returning to Gerald Shroader, Jew-boy and physicist, he has commented on the
passage in the Bible concerning the sons of god mating with the daughters of men
and producing offspring which were giants.
His attempt to reconcile age of the universe with the Bible was more on a
scientific level. This has more to do with linguistics and, perhaps, human paleontology.
He contends that a word in the Arabic Bible was mistranslated in the Greek and
later, English-version as giant. Gerald contends that the proper translation is: fallen.
It constitutes Homo sapiens mating with Neanderthals producing children who were
soul-less like the Neanderthals. While flying saucer nuts think that the sons of
god were aliens and that 'coming down' was misinterpreted as giants. They were
the scions of those that came down from the heavens.
The four Jewish - what we would call denominations - at the time of Jesus were:
Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes and Zealots. While the followers of John the Baptist
were called The "People of the Way." Jesus took over this group upon John's death.
They would become known as Ebonite after Jesus' crucifixion.
The Catholic (Roman and Eastern Orthodox) assert that Jesus said to Peter,
"Upon this rock, I build my church" thereby making Peter their first Pope. According
to the Gospel of Thomas discovered in 1948, there was a dynasty - a blood line.
When Jesus was asked who will lead us when you leave, Jesus states, "No matter
where you are, you can go to James the Just for whose sake heaven and earth came
into being." Protestants believe that Jesus had siblings while Catholics don't. It appears
that James was in charge of the Ebonites (who had some kind of a relationship with
the Essenes; The People of the Way had become known as Ebonite about 10 to 20
years after Jesus was crucified) and their headquarters was in Jerusalem. According to
Thomas after the Romans killed Jesus' brother James, the Ebonites had to go
underground and Jesus' brother Simeon took charge followed by Jesus' brother Judas.
It would appear that Peter became the second Patriarch of Rome around 50 A.D.
Was he the leader or as the Protestants maintain the symbolic leader? After Jesus'
death, it appears that James was the Patriarch or Bishop of Jerusalem with his
fellow Apostles Peter and John enjoying nearly equal status - Paul would refer to them
as the "three pillows." Yes, and then came Paul (Citizen Journalist: "There was a T.V.
series which was canceled after two years in the late '60s called "And then Came
Bronson" which NBC thought would be a hit because it contained elements of the hit
series "The Fugitive" and had a motorcycle - just like the recent hit motion picture
"Easy Rider." Net execs know there stuff. It starred Michael ______." Richard D.: I'm
too old to remember the show.").
Paul wasn't an original apostle and never met Jesus but called himself the "13th
Apostle" as would the Roman Emperor Constantine about 300 years later (a case
can be made that Constantine created the Catholic Church).
How did the views of Paul and James differ?...We shall probe this issue in part
three...
In science, it is preferable to go with the simplest explanation. Which is the simplest?
A star 25x or more the mass of the sun explodes (supernova) and what remains is 3x or
more the mass of ol' sol and collapses to form a black hole with all that mass compacted
at a point. We learned in geometry that a real point has no length, width or depth (and,
we can say, exists in Plato's heaven). When we make a point with pencil and paper, it
has a little bit of the three spatial dimensions (it is a representation of reality and is on
the wall of Plato's Cave). Scientists abhor infinities.
While the 'dying' star is collapsing to form a black hole, it will become a few miles
wide - the event horizon (you can think of this as the surface). As far as the universe is
concerned the star never reaches it - the speed of collapses slows and slows (time would
stop at event horizon) - slow motion. As far as the black hole itself is concerned: the
star collapses all the way down to a point (singularity). Remember: Einstein taught us
that everything is relative. This point would be infinitely massive/energetic and dense!
Super massive black holes exist in the center of galaxies. Did our universe originate as
a super-super-super massive black hole? How can we avoid the singularity?
Possibility one: A universe collapses on itself and becomes a white hole barely
avoiding becoming a point. The white hole was the big bang that created our universe.
Possibility two: Two membranes (branes, for short) each with ten spatial dimensions (length,
width, depth plus seven more) collide producing a bang. The branes are slightly larger than
a point. Possibility three: Potential mass/energy and potential space-time exist and
negative gravity causes it to expand creating ghostly Higgs-Bosons which become real
matter. Question: Are we getting something from nothing? If so, aren't we violated a
fundamental law of physics? We might say: big bang was followed by bid squeeze
(collapse) followed by big bang - infinitely back into the past or, put another way,.there
was no beginning. It's hard to avoid singularity (predicted by Einstein's Relativity) and
infinities.
Possibility four: An infinitely complex, all-knowing, all-powerful, omnipresent deity
created the singularity...

THE ARTICLE (Expanded/Updated)
by Citizen Journalist, Richard DePersio and Walter Koskiusko Waldowski*
Preface: What are you doing!?! We have numbers - Readers (visits): Google:
299 (group sites) and AddThis Analytics (charity sites): 36. 299 + 36 = 335;
thank you but we're suppose to exit stage door right. Our Cyber-Friends/Readers
are pulling us to center stage - just don't pull us left. Are eminent departure is
on hold. Citizen Journalist 'passed away' on 8/26/11. Condolences came from
around the world: even putin in russia cried into his puddin.' It turned out to be
an elaborate practical joke perpetrated by Citizen Journalist himself in
conjunction with that well-known jokester Sherlock Holmes. They did supply clues:
before sunset (He departed and rose two days later; Hercules (he was consumed
by a fire he had set; died a demi-god and rose a god; Sherlock even reworked
an actual statement that he had uttered in a previous incarnation: "This might not
be Citizen's Journalist's Waterloo, but it is his Marengo" (the battle that Napoleon
won, minimized, had others exaggerated helped propel him to power as "the
savior of France"). An elaborate funeral was held simultaneously ar Facebook:
Richard DePersio, NASA_Ares, THE Meeting Place and Twitter: @rickaddsite.
His loveliness himself was fooled: barney frank. He paraphrased Shakespeare at
funeral services, "We came here not to praise Citizen Journalist but to bury him."
Services were televised world-wide! Citizen Journalist re-emerged on 8/26. Many
were shocked and turned white, including, the Rev. Jackson! The return of Citizen
Journalist (reminiscent of "The Return of Sherlock Holmes) bigger, stronger and
more handsome then ever as the Offender with Truth, Defender of Justice and the
American Way. (lower-case letters intentional).
As is our wont, we start with cosmos (which means world) and then, we
deal with world by Offending with Truth!
Little media attention has been given to the fact that Russia announced
that International Space Station will be de-orbited and crashed into the
Pacific Ocean by or before 2020 - taking NASA by surprise! While NASA
had announced that operation aboard station would end in 2020, they
never said 2020 or sooner or Pacific. By what authority does Russia be
so bold regarding station for which we footed most of the bill. Could it
be due to the fact that Obama is forfeiting our preeminent position in
space exploration and compelling us to fly Soyuz at a hefty price tag for
the next 5 to 10 years? (Richard D.: "Was this report about the cosmos?" CJ:
"More like earth orbit than cosmos; although, astros do carry out
astronomical, including, solar observations).
"When objective NASA satellite data, reported in a peer-reviewed scientific
journal, show a 'huge discrepancy' between alarmist climate models and
real world facts, climate scientists, the media and our elected officials
would be wise to take note." - James Taylor, Heartland Institute.
In contrast: U.N./Al Gore/liberal science: Infamous hockey stick graph;
suppressing opposing points of view; lack of peer review in prominent
journals dealing with climate-ology, atmospheric physics; placing heat
sensors near heat sources; emails amongst U.N. scientists containing
suggestions on how to fudge data; papers in scientific journals quoting
other papers is fine but quoting from "Mountain Climbing" and "Camping
mags isn't - "National Geographic," "Scientific American," "Discover,"
Science Digest" would be considered borderline by most reputable
scientists. As our society becomes more scientific and technological, it is
imperative that our children learn real science not fabrications regarding
global warming/climate change!
Know you enemies: the liberals. This includes that strange breed: upper
and middle management at most T.V. networks, most major newspapers,
all major movie studios and record companies, most publishing houses.
They are capitalists but social (moral) liberals, liberals on domestic issues
(other than economics), liberals on defense and foreign policy.
During and before the early 1980s, 70% of Americans considered
homosexuality to be immoral. abnormal and unnatural. The issue of same-
sex marriage was virtually never brought up. The remaining 30% considered
it to be a normal but alternate lifestyle or were undecided. Nowadays,
polls show that 51% favor same-sex marriage when there choice is same-
sex marriage or not. When the civil union option is added to the mix, the
preference is 60% for civil unions (most people are too stupid to realize
that they are both the self-same thing - it's just a matter of semantics).
Although, we would likely discover that it is 65-75% in the 14 Northeastern
and 3 western states and 51-65% opposed in the Midwest and South.
Nonetheless, very significant change since the early '80s. What happened?
Only 20% of Americans identify themselves as liberals and 12% as
atheists and agnostics. Libs are amoral or moral relativists: they
believe that each person should decide right-wrong/good-bad for
themselves without any consideration given to the Bible or what the
majority in a society think (a recipe for choas not society!). We can thank
the perverted liberal daytime talk shows (Phil, Oprah, Joan, Sally, Montel
and the rest of the slime) since the early '80s wherein homo was their
favorite topic (an audience member who was critical was sometimes
shouted down by the host or made to shut up with a "We don't pass
judgement here." Libs are big on free speech; we hear you laughing!
Often the freaks appeared: for a few years, viewers were shocked and
wanted to upchuck followed by a few years of disgust followed by a
few years of uneasiness followed by a few years of tentative acceptance
and, finally, for many: it's a normal but alternate lifestyle - not for me
but acceptable. Fag flags fly high on fairy fannies (you know about our
penchant...addiction...to alliterations!).
(Economic/financial crisis due in large part to barney frank's fannie and
freddie - are we on A.D.D. trip!; be patient for there will be our customary
A.D.D. break).
Now, shows like NGC's "Taboo" and TLC's "My Strange Addiction"
are working on further damaging masculinity with man-babies. Shows
about sadists, adults who dress like animals and people with all kinds
of fetishes that they hope to mainstream. They no longer need to focus
on homos reason their flags are flying high. Our candidate for the main
flavor for the next two decades is: man-babies.
It's time for an A.D.D. break brought to you by Adderall and Gallo Wines:
There are over a 160 types of cancer; 40% of us will be diagnosed as having
cancer in our lifetime.
We are facing a double-dip recession or stagflation: rising prices (rising
inflation)and inadequate growth; during prosperity prices are high and no
one complains because demand is meeting supply (little inflation: problem
when demand exceeds supply and prices rise), unemployment is low,
raises and bonuses are large, companies are expanding (new factories),
spending more on R & D, dividends are very healthy.
Starting next year under Obama-care, health insurances companies will have
to cover birth control pills and other preventative measures and an annual
physical for women without a co-pay; these are just two of the hundreds of
new regs that will prevent health insurers from making a decent profit and
result in there going out of business paving the way for socialized medicine.
Let's not forget the hundreds of new regs that will soon take effect due to
Financial Reform forcing business to expand factories and built new
factories in countries with lower taxes and fewer regs. The loss of jobs will
mean more Americans on social services, fed gov will have to spend more on
dependent citizens. Are you worried about U.S. loosing Triple A bond rating.
We might go all the way down to junk bond status.
We were remiss: Obama-care will eliminate 12% of the plans offered by health
insurers. (See our health plan:Updated-Modified-Expanded"Action Chain Letter10"
The union myth (it too is being taught to your children): The significant growth
of the middle class in the 19th Century, especially, between the end of the
Civil War (do you know when it ended or are you ignorant?) and 1900 was due
to unions forcing big bad business which treated employees like servants (look
at your kid's elementary or high or college textbook) to increase wages 3-fold
during that period. Problem: by 1900, only 3% of Americans were in unions!
Unions helped save America by pressuring FDR to do the "New Deal." FDR's
Secretary of the Treasury stated in 1939 that "New Deal" predicated on Keynesian
economics (the same economics employed by Obama for two years) failed!
Unions are responsible for forcing those Robber Barons to institute safety in the
work place. Truth: Modern public relations began during the early 20th Century.
Execs became concerned with public image and realized that it looked bad to
have a lot of workers take ill or become injured; further, they had an investment
in worker's that they trained: an asset. Safety began to improve early in the last
century and big-time between 1933-71. Unions advocated for but didn't get
National Safety Board until 1977. Prior to the 1960s, it was difficult for blacks to
join a union and they were even precluded for certain occupations. "Look for the
Union Label" meant: made by whites. Yet, they claim and your children's teachers
teach that unions were always pro-black. Unions utter ugly untruths. (There we go
again!).

An email to 9 and 14 year old nieces...
1) Scientists had known for about 35 years that liquid water had existed on Mars
millions of years ago. They have been wondering if there might be frozen water
near the North and South Poles of Mars. Recently, NASA scientists have
discovered a stream near the Martian Equator. Water exists on Mars now. Water
is vital for living things. Could there be simple life on Mars like bacteria? Does
life only exist on earth or could it exist in other parts of our solar system? Further,
can intelligent life (I'm assuming that there is intelligent life on earth) exist on a
planet orbiting another star (maybe, Uncle Rick's star - star that you had named
after me) in our Galaxy?
2) NASA has done it again. They conducted a scientific study between 1990-2000
and another study between 2001-2011 and both show no warming. NASA does
real science. The U.N. does liberal science. You're taught bogus liberal science,
including, Global Warming/Climate Change Science. U.N. scientists are bad
scientists who fudge data! Liberal-Democrats control public schools. Liberals
think that the U.N. is important and does many good things, including, science.
The U.N. is useless. You're science teacher doesn't know any better for she is
a victim of a lib education. She needs to be taught by your Uncle Rick. It is
important that you learn all positions on issues so that you can develop your
cognitive mental skills. Public schools teach only one side in so many areas:
indoctrination not education. Your parents would be wise to have you learn from
Uncle Rick and from non-school books like I give you. School books are good
but they aren't enough if you want to be truly educated. Rocket man/Uncle Rick.
Addendum to Emails (for Internet-version not Niece-Version): Al 'Funnyman' Gore
contends that global warming-deniers hold pseudo-scientific views. It was Al-
endorsed U.N. scientists who are scientific method criminals: The infamous 'Hockey
Stick' graph/ so-called scientists emailing each other with ideas on how
to fudge data so the computer model transcended actual observational data/ the
placement of heat sensors near heat sources/ suppression of alternate opinions/lack
of peer review/relying on questionable publications. It's all a scam to continue
subsidies for unprofitable solar and wind companies; prevent Americans from
enjoying lower energy costs by exploiting more domestic (oil, natural gas, coal)
sources because of practitioners of liberal science who think that the sky is
falling; forcing Chrysler to put Volt electric car for sale which Americans don't wish
to purchase but will cost taxpayers a mint now that auto industry has been
nationalized/socialized. It's fine with environmental wackos that we import oil
from countries with lower environmental/safety standards. Obama approves of
loans to Brazilian and Mexican Oil. Obviously, he is dedicated to creating jobs - just
not American jobs! - Richard DePersio.

THE MASTERPIECE
by Citizen Journalist, Richard DePersio, Dago Red
Dedicated to Cyber-Readers
Citizen Journalist: "Where on cloud 9!" Richard DePersio: Where way out
there - beyond Mars. We reached a new record." Dago Red: "Well beyond our
wildest dreams: 216 readers for groups sites and 132 for 'Article with No Name'
last week according to Google. We haven't even received the results from
AddThis Analytics for our regular websites!" RD: "Before we get A.D.D.-ed,
we should thank our Cyber-Friends for without them we would not be
receiving this award from Citizen Journalist Comsats." DR: "We certainly are
grateful to our many readers." RD: "What is DR doing here? CJ, he's your
spokesman. Why is he writing?" CJ: "You looked above. We need the help.
Now that we got 'em, we have to keep 'em!" RD: "Too much pressure. Where's
my Valium."
"My hand hurts!"
"Shhhh! We'll write a short one in light of our four other articles posted today."
As is our wont, we start of with the cosmos (which means world) and then, we
talk about the world.
NASA is in trouble...BIG trouble! It might have to put up a going-out-of
business sign after being completely or partially responsible for over 30,000
discoveries and inventions since its inception in 1958. What can you do about it?
Please read "Updated Anew: Action Chain Letter of a Nature Different 1" at
groups.google.com/group/rickcosmos-eclectic ("Article with No Name" is keeping
it company there) and at a regular website to be announced.
"There - we made things easier for ourselves."
"The pressure, I can't take the pressure!"
Why has "Article with No Name" garnered so many readers thus far? Could it be
because we 'Offend with Truth' ? Were we shocking? We suspect that we know
the reason...
Back in 1990, Citizen Journalist was hospitalized. A nurse rushed into his
room and exclaimed, "You must be so excited that congress passed the
"American Disability Act" ! "Citizen Journalist stated, "I opposed it!" Her pretty
face dropped. "It doesn't allow free market forces to operate," he continued, and,
further, it will be abused by the cripples!" She nervously said, "But, you are a..."
Citizen Journalist interrupted, "You can leave now." Of course, the opposition
has been proven correct. (Advanced CMT, nosey!).
Liberals are flustered. It's a good time for an A.D.D. break sponsored by Adderall and
Southern Comfort whiskey - what a combo!

Jefferson, Madison, Lincoln, Reagan and Laffer for the mods and conservatives.
Wilson, FDR, LBJ, Carter. Clinton, Kennedy (Ted; John is idolized by liberals as a
perfect liberal, they're too stupid to realize that he wasn't a liberal!) and Keynes.
They're complaining about the swimsuit competition.

Updated Anew: Chain Letter of a Nature Different 1
by Citizen Journalist and Richard DePersio
PREFACE: We have a crisis: NASA might have to put up a "Going-Out-of-Business"
sign soon unless WE do something about it soon! Chain Letter proper has been
updated. Please add the following:
Let's put things in their proper perspective...NASA is special and unique being the
only component of fed gov from which you actually get a return: for every $1 budgeted,
we get about $5 returned within approximately 7 years in the form of science and
technology. NASA is completely or partially responsible for over 30,000 discoveries
and inventions since its inception in 1958.
What can we do? Phone or leave a message at the website of members of
congress (info below). What should we say to the full-of-themselves? NASA receives
$17.5 billion annually or 1/2 of 1% of fed budget. Congress plans to cut NASA's
budget by $1 to 2 billion. We realize that everyone must do their share in debt crisis.
In light of NASA's uniqueness do you think that $500 million or about 2.5% of
NASA's budget is acceptable?
We understand that many Republicans and even a few Democrats object to
giving SpaceX and Virgin Galactic of $750 million apiece - a subsidy which won't
be reimbursed. Obama wants to allocate $2.5 billion for heavy-lifter and manned-
beyond-earth-orbit program which is woefully too small for goals to be met. NASA
may as well fold up its tent and lay-off even more workers during this recession
which Obama thinks is over! NASA won't be flying anywhere for another 30 or
more years! We concur with members of Congress (capital 'C' - we must be
polite when asking for money) who want NASA to have $4 billion and let private
sector fend for itself. Just say "No" to subsidies!

Subject: CHAIN LETTER of a NATURE DIFFERENT 1 (LATEST UPDATE):
Update 1: Proposal 1 - Congratulations! House approved.
We aren't satisfied, we want it to be required in Senate too;
no more messing with our Constitution. All new bills must have
an attachment showing that the bill is constitutional.
Update 2: Proposal 2 - it appears as if the $9.5 billion spent on R & D in the
soon to be discontinued "Constellation" program won't go down the same
presidential black hole as $$$s for stimulus packages, cash-for-clunkers and
Fannie/Freddie! It will be used in new heavy-lift rocket program/man beyond
earth orbit program.
Reminder: Send all 11 "Action Chain Letters" to family members, friends and
co-workers. Or, take it a step further: phone and/or leave messages at websites
of members of congress. Congressional info: "Action Chain Letters" 1, 2 and 5.
NASA budget: $17.5 billion; planned cut: $1 billion. NASA will be
allocated $2.5 billion for heavy-lifter/beyond earth orbit program;
SpaceX and Virgin Galactic will receive subsidy of $750 million
each.
