I was a bit confused by your statements, but I think you were saying that homosexuals are freer to create aesthetic masterpieces because they are freer of material demands than husbands and fathers?

The idea that creative people are not on the whole successful is a myth. The problem is that "creative" is a very fuzzy concept, but if it means one who can develop or discover new concepts or idea that are productive of value or popular, creativity is the most important single explanation or correlate of high income and creation of great wealth. The space station is a typical bureaucratic make-work project, programmed to satisfy a perverted politically-based science, like the manned space programs in general. The really questing creative scientists are those who have been squeezed out of space research by the lack of launch vehicles for space instruments. If one compares the scientific results of the space telescope to that of the whole manned space program you will see that cost effectiveness is at least ten times as high on unmanned space science. Those working on the space station (especially in Washington), should not be laid at all in my opinion. Merely engineers working for the yankee dollar.
