I'm having trouble deciding what to do for my Fox News column tomorrow. I actually wrote the "Counting the Swimmers" post with the intent of running it, but it would make two NASA/SLI-bashing columns in a row, and I don't want to sound like I'm in a rut, and all I can do is bitch and moan about NASA. I'm thinking of maybe running the solar sail piece instead, particularly since Layne liked it enough to link to it.

What do y'all think?

I'd combine an SLI bashing piece with a solar sailing piece. Sort of a "here's the idiocy" (because it is always in order to point such out), but over there is a glimmer of hope (because we certainly all need that.)

I've got a word limit. I'd have to hack both of them severely to do that.

Word limit? CENSORSHIP!!!!

Yeah, that's the ticket, yeah...

Yeah that is a cool peice. I like the part about sailing nuclear waste into the Sun. Hey can we sail Carrot Top into the sun....Pleassseee!! I'd pull out the solar filter for my telescope to watch that :)

Solar sail. We all need a bit of a lift. ;)

OK, the ayes have it, as you'll hopefully see tomorrow...
