I’ve been showing people at the DC-X anniversary workshop the proof copy.

If you put the salt and pepper shakers on the plaque, one on each side of the model, you’ll have the Senate DC-X. Then stick the rubber-banded foam cylinder on top for the Block II version.
At the next conference, bring a single-cup coffee maker and a thermos so you can explain fuel depots.
It does, it does exist.
It does exist! Where can it be found? Amazon lists it as a hardcover and not yet available. Oh, wait. You said proof copy. Back to being patient.
Sir,
Just a thought – http://xkcd.com/
A small risk is still a small risk . . .

It’s a new day, so I think you meant this: http://xkcd.com/1252/
Mike is referring to comic 1252.
Those banded foam rubber things look like the Swedish rocket stove (fire torch) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WfRovJ1KcCg
Guess I’m linguistically challenged. Seems like your book should be titled “SAFE is not Mandatory”. If something is not an Option, then it must be a Requirement. That’s NASA’s current self-imposed fatal flaw, is it not?
No. Ex: you can have one, or two, or four, but you can’t have three. It is not an option.
Who knew Rand was so good with photoshop? =p
Kudos for the book!
