You make some interesting points, deeno.

It occurred to me while reading your post that a parallel exists in Internet, which launched, as history books now state, the same year that a man first stepped onto the moon. It took Internet approximately thirty years to transform into a commercial paradigm, and last looked it appeared to be flourishing. With barriers to entry now finally coming down for private ventures in the space sector, it's not unreasonable to think a similar outcome will unfold.

Which is pretty where I'm at, in all this...
