ParticipantWhat do you have against the Che Cafe? I’ve seen tons of great bands play there. Even put on a few shows myself. Most of the people who go there don’t even know who Che is. They just want to see a good show.
And for that matter, what do you guys have against Roosevelt? Not that I care, I just didn’t see much difference between the colleges except for the quality of their dorm rooms and whether or not your walk to class had a lot of hills.
– Signed,

Roosevelt GraduateParticipantWhether or not you agree with the policy, I don’t understand why people are shocked that Obama wants to ramp up Afghanistan. He campaigned on it, did he not? And the majority of Americans voted for him based on that campaign, did they not? Damned if he does, damned if he doesn’t, I guess.

ParticipantWow that’s pretty stupid that the voting happened before he even had a chance to do anything. I’m an Obama supporter and I think this is weird. All my Obama-supporting friends think it’s weird too.
Maybe it was his speech on race relations from March 08?
But still, it’s weird.

October 8, 2009 at 8:25 PM in reply to: Does anyone know we are bombing the moon on October 9th? #466536ParticipantNASA’s initial research, or “waste of money,” as some like to call it, have resulted in plenty of things that we use today and enable us to live the modern life that we do. Where would we be without satellite technology? GPS? Insulation? Solar technology? Rocket design and fuel? Optical tech? Gyroscopes? Silicon chips? Lasers? Composites?
Now imagine back to when NASA requested the initial funds to begin research on these technologies. I’m sure plenty of people saw these things as wastes of money. But look today and you’ll find that all of these things have payed for themselves and then some. A million times over.
Crashing this thing into the moon doesn’t cost any more money than just letting it turn into space junk at the end of its mission. It wasn’t sent up to crash into the moon. It was sent up to survey the moon. Now that its job is over, why not crash it and increase the research data that we can squeeze from the mission? It’s better than leaving the thing floating in space as a piece of junk or burning up upon reentry into the Earth’s atmosphere.
Lots of people called Columbus’ voyages a waste of money too. But now 500+ years into the future, wouldn’t you say those expensive voyages were worth it?
