The New Yorker's concern for Oklahomans is touching. It is a place in which they normally would have little interest.Or do they have an agenda? Nowhere in the article did they correlate the epicenter of earthquakes with the depth of drilling. The oil wells are simply too shallow. Nice try guys. South Central Oklahoma's Wichita Mountains are part of the remains of a continental rift system. There are deep normal faults, kilometers deep, and seismically active from time to time. Not unlike the more famous New Madrid fault of the Mississippi to the east. They should take time to learn about the geology of flyover country.

Thanks for your opinion leftist subversive Iranian student harbored by the American liberal establishment. Now let's hear from the Israelis slashdot.

As long is they don't pursue MILF POV.

NASA could recover more funding if they ended the space station project early, as George W. Bush planned. About $25 billion by my count. What will they do up there between now and then? A whole lot of nothing, marooned with our enemies the Russians. It would be wiser to go back to the moon before the Chinese do.

None of Obama's decisions will last. There is no point in NASA committing to anything beyond 2016. After that President Cruz will shake things up at moribund NASA.

Insufficient for what? Their pocketbooks? Climate change is a fraud. The notion that you can express control on climate through political structures is nutty.

Another mushy moderate is not what we need. The GOP needs a rock ribbed, conservative bomb thrower. Go Ted Cruz!!!

is to reduce the number of student visas given to them. That will whip them into shape fast. IBM has lost to everybody in IT. What makes them think they beat Intel?

A really silly mission, whose scope gets less impressive all the time. A new administration can't get here fast enough to, among other things, kill this silly mission and seriously reform NASA.

There is no upside to instructing hostiles in this.

Not likely. The leftist America haters are being swept from power election by election. Ted Cruz should set NASA right in 2 years and send Obama's bed wetters home.

Not surprising. Obama's activists at NASA have been slow walking (read sabotaging) the program for years. They'd rather be raining federal dollars on their crooked hero Elon MUsk. We need a new President who will make SLS a priority. Constellation was a great program and the leftists wrecked it. Now we are marooned for the next decade on a decrepit space station with our arch enemies, the Russians. Not a space program befitting America, but then again, neither is our leadership.

At least something makes you glad. Start buying wrinkle cream now.

Sarah Palin's emails were investigated, and held up to leftist scrutiny. Hillary destroyed hers, without giving the rightful owner of the records a chance to investigate. That concealment is a crime.

Does that go for Hillary's server too, or is it optional for people who hold high office?
