Space and planetary settlement.

I have to reply to andy-nimmo and let others know that: I will not
insult anyone because of their ideas nor will I accept insults
like "The email I'm replying to is garbage. If Edith & Steve had half
an ounce of brain-power between them...". For starters I sent a copy
of an email I sent to Mike Combs regarding his webpage and I edited
the text where I tell him about me. I'm a person with Cerebral Palsy
and I had my share of insults in my life and will receive more in my
life. However, I do not, and I repeat, I do not go around insulting
others. I will not tolerate those kinds of insults. Is that clear
andy-nimmo?

As to recycling, I know that in space it would be easier to recycle.
However, we need to clean up our act now on Earth.

Thank you
Steve
