    Agree wholeheartedly! Granted the infighting is causing some short term issues, but I love that these guys are so passionate about it. For years so many people have been saying (and rightly so) “it’s not government’s job to be in the space business, private enterprise needs to take over.” You may not like what this or that company is doing with their money in space right now, but I, for one, love this private push into space and think that whatever route they take, it will get us into space. Certainly quicker than letting the government handle it.

    But not Ma Bell, Ho-Jo, or PanAm – The movie was prescient in some ways, and not so much in others.

    Surely enormous prideful egos have nothing to do with it.
