Howdy Festus,

Would you be Fillmore's cousin? :)

Re: The defense system that will eventually take over is laser based, not missile battery based, and I would be very surprised if it were not extremely reliable.

Tell me about the power requirements. Tell me about how you'll deal with MIRVs. Tell me about target acquisition.

Then tell me how the NMCC, NORAD and the FAA simply couldn't find a Boeing 757 (American Flight 77) purportedly flying 300 miles from Ohio to the Pentagon on the morning of September 11, 2001. If you can answer that one, I'd be very appreciative.

Either the military has vastly greater capabilities than were demonstrated on 9/11, or else your laser-missile defense is a foolish pipedream. Which is it?
