Right—OK—that’s what I was saying. Some people are space cadets—and I figure some of them can probably make useful contributions.
Space has some other possibilities for reducing risks too. For example, communications satellites network the world, make everyone friends—and reduce the chances of war. Of course there’s also star wars—but I don’t think that space can be simply written off as not helping.
