Ah, at least FR is predictable; most of the replies are from people consumed with hatred of science and scientists.
1) It’s a microscopic amount of money.
2) Other than some very minor efforts long ago, it’s not federally funded. it’s funded by donations.
But let’s all mock someone smarter than us who devoted her life to something that hasn’t been successful so far, but if it is would be the single greatest accomplishment in human history.
Nope just a hatred of my taxes being pi$$ed away unconstitutional idiocy, and this is idiocy - big time.
1) Its a microscopic amount of money.
one cent of taxpayer money spent on this is a waste.
its not federally funded
This is a falshood - otherwise know as a lie. Didn't you read the article? Last I looked the Air Force is a federal institution, and funded by the Univ of Calif is also TAXPAYER funded and big state universities get gobs of federal tax dollars. So don't try to whizz on our heads and tell us it's raining.
But lets all mock someone smarter than us
She may be smarter then you, in fact from your koolaid comments I'm sure she's smarter than you, but she's not smarter than the rest of us. Unless you count the fact that she's run a good long career out of conning people out of their money for someting that's of the same scientific value as perpetual motion, cold fusion, and 300 mpg carburators (supressed by the oil companies of course) as being smart.
single greatest accomplishment in human history.
Really? You really think that? Then there isn't any hope for you at all.
The single greatest accomplishment in history occurred at Calvary. Jesus Christ paid the price for sin and redeemed for Himself a bride.
