Finally, the first signs of progress in my four-year long struggle to popularize “esotera” as the noun form of “esoteric”. I will continue to fight the good fight.

MENSA requires a yearly fee to access their forums after you’ve been accepted. That sucks.

I totally agree with you. We continue to blow our budgets on worthless entitlement programs, while space, the future of humanity, remains unexplored.

The Space Shuttle was a flawed design intended to serve a political purpose, the Moon is not an appropriate subject for research due its lack of atmosphere, natural minerals, and proximity to Earth’s gravitational shadow, and we need to ignore treaty obligations and continue research on the Prometheus project.

Huzzah.
