ParticipantI don’t think scrapping space shuttle is a very big deal. They were getting very old and unreliable. I think the whole notion of manned space exploration is wasteful in terms of cost to scientific value ratio. The future will be in unmanned space explorations. Just look at ISS; a $100 billion motel 6 with constant problems of plumbing, toilet, ventilation etc., AFAIK, zero scientific output. The Mars lander programs are infinitely more exciting. The Hubble has produced more science in 20 odd years than what human space flight has produced in more than 40 years; at probably 1% cost.

ParticipantAN,
From what I have been reading, I think SD Realtor is a rarest of rare agents out there. The ones I know want a machine gun like approach to make a kill and move on. I think a part of the REO game being played out consists of blocking and tackling moves (by the listing agent) designed to reduce competition to bring best reward to selling agent (than the seller). I experienced two instances where listing agent tried to discourage me from considering making an offer (in one case by mentioning some supposed defects of the property without being asked and in another case by not giving information I needed).

Participantagent working just for YOU
It is good to remember an agent works for HIMSELF/HERSELF first before working for you. They can NEVER be a substitute for your own judgment. I found from experience that agents don’t like to make low offers that have a small (even tiny) chance of being accepted. But that’s where the best deals are: low offers + cash + no contingencies + fast closing.
