Ah, yes. There it is.

I'd have thought you'd turn out the lights and walked around in the dark with a bottle of some kind of goo that flouresces under radiation.

It's cool you work in nuclear power. I used to work in nuclear power. The only difference is that if the time ever came for me to throw my switch, things would start disappearing off the face of our planet.

If I set the budget, we'd have Ares and more. Unfortunately, I don't set the budget, and Ares is just too expensive and too far out for us to accomplish our goals within the budget we were given.

If we halt the ISS, all versions of Ares, and transport Orion and Altair aboard DIRECTv3's Jupiter family of Shuttle-Derived Launch Vehicles, we just might make it back to the Moon by 2020.
