von Braun was god, you know. {8-] I have a story for you that
floats around my home town. When von Braun was brought to
the cape to lay out the design for the base, he also sketched out
what the moon rocket first stage would look like. "First staich,
ve haf fife engines. Diameter, ve make...oh...10 meters."

Engineers copied furiously. The Saturn V first stage is exactly
393.7 inches in diameter. {8^D

As for whether transparent society is good or bad, I can
be swayed either way, but regardless of *my* attitude,
it *is* coming. spike
