the issue with my letter in it is on newstands now. They edited it a bit but the gist is there.
Good job William, and I agree 1000%. People will always whine, "Why don't you spend that money on me?" The answer, of course, is that spending money on whinners doesn't provide any return for the public at large and, in most cases, doesn't even improve the whinners' lot in life.

Very well done. Personally I think a lot of people changed their minds about space exploration after reading it. That makes a lot of sense.
