"A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are for. Jonathan Clark" This goes back a lot further than that, to Admiral Grace Hopper, probably ~40 years ago.

Re: "A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are for." Jonathan Clark, husband of Laurel Blair Salton Clark, Columbia astronaut killed in January 2003 crash. In the aftermath of the Columbia screwup, NASA served up Ron Dittimore's deathknell within 90 minutes. In the aftermath of the murder of 3,000 Americans on 9/11/01, Dick Cheney and his puppet George Bush demanded that Tom Daschle, Senator Majority Leader, not form an independent Commission to investigate 9/11. Which Daschle acquiesced to. He didn't do a damn thing until public outrage made a joint Intelligence Committee hearing unavoidable. And when this failed to tell the public the truth, public outcry demanded an independent Commission. Which George Bush created and put Henry Kissinger in charge of. There was so much public outcry that Kissinger was dismissed and Tom Kean was put in charge. And that is the dirty bastard in charge now. A complete scoundrel whom Bob Kerrey suggests is leading a "totally Bull***t" commission. Where does that leave America?
