Hopefully, the legal fees required to fight the environazi's won't have to come out of the overall Nuclear Systems Initiative budget. They'd have nothing left.

If I spread the jelly on my toast as thinly as NASA's budget is spread, I wouldn't be able to taste anything. Should NASA cut back other programs even further and go gung-ho for nuclear propulsion?

Give the NSI 10% of NASA's overall budget, aim for a workable system in 5 years, and I bet you'd see some serious excitement and public support as we watched space vehicles fan out across the solar system at high speed.

Am I dreaming in technicolor?
