Actually, I’m at DFW waiting for a flight to West Palm Beach. Then I’m driving up to the Cape for the Space Settlement Summit, where I expect to have some interesting conversations about the impact of the election on space. So probably light posting for a few days.
I’ll be back home on Sunday. Disport yourselves not inappropriately in comments.
[Update a few minutes later, before boarding]
Glenn Reynolds has some observations about the election, Elon, and space.
