Thursday February 8 6:11 PM ETU.S. Air Force Gearing Up for Space Operations
http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/nm/20010208/ts/arms_space_dc_1.html Excerpt: >>>The Air Force will seek to resurrect a program to test a space-based radar aimed at giving a sharper view of enemy territory, potentially a multibillion-dollar effort, he told Reuters after addressing the conference. Congress killed the program last year, citing cost concerns. Among the contractors involved are Lockheed Martin Corp. and Boeing Co.<<< This "space-based radar" would, I assume, be the following:

It's interesting to contemplate the relation between the money and effort put out by governments and the military to weaponize the atmosphere, at the same time the surface of the planet is degrading so rapidly that humans will shortly (relatively speaking) be unable to live on it. Except as artificial constructs in a "virtual" or manufactured simulation of the natural world.

Yes. Multi-billions to make of the near-earth environment a "battlespace", but cuts in education budget(s):Facing Education Budget Cuts, Schools Fear Worst
http://ap.tbo.com/ap/breaking/MGAYY9DRZIC.html
Excerpt:
>>States across the country are facing similar shortfalls due in large part to sagging tax revenue which wasn't helped by low spending during the holiday season. The 6.2 percent cut ordered in education spending removes $266 million from the current year's $4.3 billion education budget. The last time it was reduced that way was in 1992, when it was cut 3 percent.<<
Oh, well...

Perhaps the future "education" they have in mind will not require anything much besides very rudimentary following of orders...

Diane, your comment does not strike me as being out of the realm.

Pentagon Study May Bring Big Shake-Up
Unconventional Defense Thinker Conducting Review
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A46423-2001Feb8.html
Excerpt [closing paragraphs]:
Bush went on to argue that the time for incremental change was over. To ensure that the Pentagon would make hard decisions, he pledged that, upon becoming president, "I will begin an immediate, comprehensive review of our military -- the structure of its forces, the state of its strategy, the priorities of procurement." Bush's advisors were even more pointed. "If the Republicans come in, things aren't going back to the old way at the Pentagon, [Richard] Armitage said last summer. We're going to get into the 21st century whether they like it or not."
