Unfortunately Warren, you can't divorce one form the other because the money for all this has to come from somewhere and there are all sorts of vested interests that are going to want to have a say in the matter. If we could take all of the politics and other nonsense out of it, that would be great, but we can't. If things keep going the way they have been for the past 4 decades, we will never get past sending "tin men" out to do no more than a little bit of scouting around for us because it'll be just "all too hard" to do otherwise. Too hard to do, and for all the wrong reasons.
