Goldin signs the paychecks of all those NASA guys you mentioned, and has to go up to the Hill every year to fight for money for them. Then Zubrin (another employee, I need to add) along with Tumlinson and Cowing use the opportunity presented by the Mars Society
conferences to s*** all over him - an example right at hand is sometimes bbs poster Gary calling Goldin a liar when he tells folks he worked on Mars projects; but thenm he's been emboldened to do this by Mr. Space Ref.(actually this is his partner) Cowing's constant c****** on "Dan" over at NASAWatch -
This has been going on for some years now, and by arranging for the presentation of NASA funded research at their conferences the Mars Society key organizers have managed to create the PR illusion that all good work on manned and unmanned Mars is due to themselves, and not to Goldin and the other NASA managers who are really responsible for it -
That's why I think that Goldin and Rothenberg ought to simply show up on their doorstep uninvited -
