I was just sitting there laughing harder at each point. I considered explaining to him the stupidity here, but decided it would be a waste of time.

Instead of a steppingstone to Mars, NASA's current lunar plan is a detour. It will derail our Mars effort, siphoning off money and engineering talent for the next two decades. If we aspire to a long-term human presence on Mars--and I believe that should be our overarching goal for the foreseeable future--we must drastically change our focus. Here's my plan, which I call the Unified Space Vision. It's a blueprint that will maintain U.S. leadership in human spaceflight, avoid a counterproductive space race with China to be second back to the moon, and lead to a permanent American-led presence on Mars by 2035 at the latest.
Counterproductive space race? Sounds like an oxymoron.
Races between nations produced many technologies.
And second back to the moon isn't a bad thing, particularly for it to be the stepping stone he speaks of.
When playing MP, what's to prevent the same server-side checks that are in all FPS games these days? And you can turn all the enemies bright red in proprietary games too- the models and texture maps are usually pretty easy to find, and don't form part of the binary (which is the bit people are talking about when they refer to open source).
"server-side checks" can't pickup changes made to the client. Maps and textures can be checksumed, but again, that's a client side check and nothing server side can stop the client from lying about being clean.
...demonstrations where we can snipe at blowup dolls wearing million dollar armor with some high tech rifles.
"...protect a wearer from long-range gunfire by detecting the incoming bullets and administering small shocks to the appropriate muscles required for moving out of the way."
Blowup dolls don't have muscles... You'll have to wear it for them.
