They do in my book! Hang on... (tap-tap). Did you hear that? Pure bongo frenzy, I tell you!

Well, ok, so I'm a touch mad (eccentric). Isn't that a polymathical requirement?

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.
