I don't think the response to terrorism is to stop progress. Perhaps such a target would be exactly what they'd want to hit, but we Americans don't stop living just because they'd want to kill us, do we?

Of course not.

No, my friend. The idea is to kill the seventh-century savages BEFORE they kill us.
BTW: I would love to see that space elevator before I die. I have always thought it an intriguing idea.
