I think T.L. James last sentence is the true nut of the ISS commercialization issue. As mentioned, NASA has made commercialization overtures before, but when it came time to bite, the response has been; "the commercial technology is not mature enough."

If the Aerospace industry in this country cannot at least duplicate the 30 year old technology now being used to do the job and make a profit in the process maybe there is no hope for our present industry.
