Thanks for that. I know that the original outer limestone casing on the pyramids were stripped away.

To me, the real astonishing thing is that these old monuments weren’t torn down a thousand years ago to re use the building materials. I’m glad they weren’t but I remain surprised.

Oh I get that for sure. I’m not an expert but I get the impression that Boeing is way too caught up in its own Bureaucracy. They’re still developing products like they did in the 1960’s; lack of innovation and spend, spend, spend. That model is dead and buried.

He has contributed massively to Space X. Now however lately he’s become national embarrassment to anybody who’s paying attention. You keep on pretending that he’s a god emperor though.

I agree; Shotwell does have everything well in hand (probably always has). I’d like to keep it that way. He can have all the fun he wants at Twitter. I hope he stays there as long as possible.

I respect your opinion. At least we can agree that Space X is a fantastic company and certainly is the major driver of innovation in space transportation technology today. Stay safe and well.

Space X is a fabulous company and I was following it when they hadn’t even gotten anything off the ground. I cheer every launch and I can honestly say that they have single handed changed the space race. Again, that’s why I’m delighted hes over at Twitter and not at Space X right now.

Sorry sonny, Musk is the CEO and the COO and President is Gwynn Shotwell. You should be relieved that she’s actually running the show while Musk embarrasses himself daily over at Twitter.

Imagine seeing the CEO of a major cutting edge firm as the god emperor that is the only thing holding Space X together.

Yeah, I know. Kinda makes me believe the rumours about how the adults keep him out of the real decision making process at Space X are spot on. I used to admire him, but his big mouth cleared that up years ago.

I can’t imagine that Americans could retire without millions of dollars considering that they would be bankrupted by a serious medical crisis. How much does Medicare pay?

Let’s be fair; if there are no golf courses, how would the millions of overweight and out of shape golfers pretend they’re physically active and participating in a real sport instead of the reality they they’re simply driving around on a huge outdoor tablecloth?
