“…I know how to fail. Just pick the wrong people, and you are doomed.”
Yes, at this point, I’d say you’re a poster boy for that bit of acquired wisdom.

So, you want to return to: “Faster, Better, Cheaper”? Sure. That’s the ticket.
Rand,
I liked the other quote from in the original article. According to Griffin, “NASA, in my view, for the first time since the Nixon administration, is doing the right things, and also doing things right.”
Heh.

Ah, the good old fallacy of the excluded middle.
I don’t want to “return” to any time (particularly the sixties, with Apollo on Steroids). I’d rather have a space program that represents the future.
According to Griffin, “NASA, in my view, for the first time since the Nixon administration, is doing the right things, and also doing things right.”
I think he’s wrong on both counts.
Rand,
I agree with your comment to Bald Tires. That fallacy sure is getting a lot of exercise lately. And the fact that Griffin thinks things are going in a good direction is just another example of why we need a new administrator.

Griffin seems to be a very arrogant man.
mz,
You think? One of the, I guess you could call it “career hazards” of being an aerospace engineer is that since you have to know a lot to be good in this field, arrogance seems to be a very common trait. I’d rather have a NASA administrator who liked space, but knew his limits, than one who thought he knew everything and had the degrees to prove it.
