re: Dan's smoker... Marcia
Marcia,
Don't know about Dan & Justin but I've recently communicated with Larry J (even though he is a Broncos fan). Nonetheless, he's abandoned this site because of what he terms complete infestation by left wing politics. I suggested that he simply confine himself to the mostly apolitical SPACE page as I do, but to no avail. Too bad, because he really does have good insight into space technology. I think that moonbat politics keeps Jim O scarce here as well. Too bad.
The other guy who used to post here whose updates I miss is John Carmac of Armadillo Aerospace. Word up is that he's making a BIG announcement this week.
