Unlike lots of freeepers, I'm not saying that the manufacturing method should not have been changed, just that any new method had to have equiavlent or better quality than the incumbent method. It's quite obvious that conservative engineering prinicples were not used in changing the procedures.

No Sh+t Sherlock!!

We have MUCH MORE "on the Boards" than our timid "managers" are willing to let Us Try!!

During the "Moon Launch," our Brightest Minds were allowed to overrule the "Management-Types;" I am Saying that Our Current Status Requires that We, once again, give "Free Rein" to Our "Best & Brightest;" Our Species Needs a Goal external to our current limited expectations!

According to snopercod, the Challenger and two Titan III's were lost partially due to the replacement of asbestos-bearing putty with zinc chromate putty to seal the booster segments. I imagine this was done to appease the squawking liberal enviro-scumbags who stain their panties when they hear the word "asbestos".

Snopercod also mentioned that the solvents and adhesives used in the booster mating procedures were changed, resulting in O-ring blowby similar to that which brought down the Challenger. Any bets that these changes were also made to appease these same liberal Democrat scumbags?

And then Environmental requirements required removal of freon from the process for spraying the foam insulation onto the tank. NASA admitted that the freon-free application method resulted in foam that initially did not adhere to the tank as well. They clamied that they were able to "strengthen" it, but they never claimed that they got it equal to what it was with the freon-based application. Another kowtow to the liberal Democrat scumbags.

The facts speak for themselves - - the scumbag Democrats and their environmental wacko sponsors killed seven astronauts. It's a shame nobody at NASA had the guts to tell the scumbag Democrats "no".

Now let's see if anybody at NASA or in the Republican Party has the guts to call the scumbags on the carpet for their deadly meddling.
