Re: [Utah-astronomy] NASA administrator

If anyone's interested in reading about NASA administrator Mike Griffin defending science spending cutbacks -- and the challenge to that launched by a figure familiar to many Utahns, Gil Moore -- here's my story. Thanks, Joe

Thanks for posting that story Joe. I'd been carrying around some residual respect for Griffin, since he was an actual engineer once upon a time. But now he sounds just like all the other political flaks out there. With NASA focusing more and more on shuttle and ISS, it's lost any reason at all for existing. Pity.
