Agreed!

Henry has every right to make a statment for or against anything he wishes,
as long as it does not fall into the areas of slander, goverment secretes, 
or yelling FIRE in a crowded theater when there is no fire.

William also has a right to make a statment conserning his opinion of Henry's
statment.  

And, of course, I have every right to make a statment about William's opinion
of Henry's statment...

As far as my statment, I belive that much of what is attributed to NASA's 
management could easily be caused by their bosses, the congress.  If you 
had to scrap and restart projects, somtimes on a monthly basis, everytime 
another vote is taken in congress, you might have a public image problem too.

Ask anyone in an R&D position what its like to get shuffeled from project
to project whenever the winds of management change.
