That's all very true. The problem clearly isn't with these concepts, as
it's the gauntlet of disinformation and/or the taboo/nondisclosure
(need-to-know) basis within this incest of such a brown-nosed cesspool
of bigotry, arrogance and greed that has more Usenet heathen potential
than Hitler and of a Pope going postal over Cathars.

We need our own semi-private and thus moderated work groups that'll
seek out and essentially recruit from the better half of this
intellectual cesspool. Actually, we might be limited to just 1% of
what's available, since at least 99% seem to be on a mainstream status
quo vendetta of their knowing thy enemy so as to be continually
snookering thy humanity.

Personally, I believe your rigid-spaceship has potential of being all
it can be. What we need are commercial investors with vision and a
serious need for speed, which may or may not involve those SSMEs. A
serious prototype shouldn't be all that insurmountable.

Kurt Vonnegut would have to agree far beyond; WAR is WAR, thus "in war
there are no rules" - In fact, war has been the very reason of honest
folks having to deal with the likes of others that haven't been playing
by whatever the supposed rules, such as our resident LLPOF warlord(GW
Bush).
