She is a liberal communist no doubt.

I have no sympathy for these wealthy thrill seekers. Everest is dangerous, even if he does have poor Sherpas to haul his oxygen espresso maker to 26,000 feet. Base camp for these yahoos lies right at the foot of an unstable icefall. I'd like to see the avalanche footage during the quake.

I wonder what Hillary will get for the same crime and obstruction of justice in the Benghazi email coverup?

Nice to see the House doing what they were elected to do, slash the budget. Now if they would just end immigration. Federally funded cybersecurity? Not mine certainly. Who is really free of the voyeurs at the NSA?

Ethically challenged Chinese? I'm shocked. They are already selecting females for extinction. Do they want hermaphrodites?

A great feature of the original Internet was anonymity, which I contend is liberating of speech and ideas. The loss of anonymity allows the mob to finger one for reprisals, as in this case. to the people with lapel cameras recording every misdeed I say, "go to hell."

It doesn't sound as much like an analysis as more excuses and spin from Elon Musk. You must admit, it was a pretty ugly attempt. ULA's engine compartment recovery scheme makes more sense. Self-respect would ULA them from ever attempting the crudely engineered spectacle we just watched.

Why or you all obsessing on a trip to Mars when Obama has done everything in his power to sabotage the space program? He slow walked SLS like he slow walked Keystone XL. To get to Mars we need large (Saturn V) class rockets to fulfill the mission. Elon Musk's toys aren't enough. Let's get it done!

Yeah, kudos. Each failure is more spectacular than the last! ULS's engine recovery concept makes more sense.

Do you need further proof of the inanity of Obama's space program. ISS should be dismantled at once and the Constellation Program restarted.

Better a congress make law than tainted political appointees at the FCC. Same goes for Obama's activists at the EPA, IRS, HHS, Homeland Security (what irony!). Energy Department, and Justice Department.

How do you like the Snail Darter now CA? You should have been building reservoirs. Scrub your ass with sand!

Smoking dope makes you stupid. There's a bit of news.

Screw the indolent natives if there even are any. Mauna Kea is held sacred by astronomers. That is all that matters.

First of all tabs are not enough to properly format a source file, spaces are necessary, so your size argument goes out the door. Customize? Yeah, that's the problem. I am a 50 year old crusty gray manager of C++ development. When you have 20 developers working on a project, you don't want art, you don't want flair, you want predictable, you want correct, you wanted tested, you want uniformity. When you lose a developer you want to plug the replacement into well designed base so they feel like they don't have to rewrite it. You also want strict indentation (preferably with a tool), 80 column lines, function length limits, include guards, and consistent ordering of declarations in header files and 100 other correctness best practices. My advice. Use the default settings in Emacs, turn off tabs. It's all the IDE you will ever need.
