Before Henry gets a chance to post his summary of the last week's Av Leak,
let me get my one shot in.

The USSR has (in conjunction with their US marketing firm) proposed using
Energia to boost the US space station components to orbit.  The rationale
is that it would save development costs for Shuttle C, and cut down the
number of Shuttle flights necessary to assemble the station.

On another page, there was a photo of the mockup of Shuttle C.

Why the *(&) did we throw away Saturn V????
