I'm shocked!

Hi All

For once I actually agree with Jeff Bell's op-ed at SpaceDaily. Usually I loath his whining, but this time he actually makes sense...

Apollo 2.5

...and I agree 100% with canning the Shuttle early to save all the other programs. As Sawyer has pointed out flying a Shuttle and a CEV will be two different experiences entirely.

Still think Bell is a whining know-it-all but perhaps he's redeemable.
