Instead we have a current space program that relies on Russian rockets to get our astronauts into space.<br /><br />Like Mr. Robinson, I believe we'll make it through our current situation, as I believe we have within us a desire to be free, to explore, and to make a better world for ourselves and our children. How we'll get through it is another story, but we have to have faith.<br /><br />Thanks for writing.<br /><br />THTerence E.

His books are huge, visionary, bursting with ideas on every page. He believes we'll make it through the current crap.<br /><br />I sure hope so, but personally, I am not so sure.Howardnoreply@blogger.com
