Sorry to ask this again, but I couldn't find the old post, when is the LOR shareholder meeting? I forgot...

The ion propulsion system does seem to give Hughes a nice competitive advantage. During my brief stint (2 years of hell) at the Aerospace Engineering school at Michigan, I did a lot of research work on ion propulsion, and thought that it indeed had a lot of potential. I think I may still have some documents from JPL about ion systems possible use on satellites, I will see if I can find them. Ion systems help prolong the life of the sat... it will be interesting to see more on how their testing was done, however, I have long since seperated myself from those days when I thought I wanted to be engineer, so all that drinking in school may have wiped those brain cells out...
