6. I don't beleive any of us are attacking science. We are mocking Agent Orange.

7. You're NOT serious, are you?

Look, if you ARE serious, you're WAY too serious.

16. Trump's Space Farce has nothing to do with science.

If they get it up & running, guaranteed NASA will disappear.

It's Frank Sutton, Gomer's Sgt. Vince Carter.

14. That was one of my favorite shows when I was a 'ute.

That, and Captain Video. I was there when Captain Video helicoptered into a neighboring town.

18. Yep, I used to watch both.

15. That's great.

The show was based on Robert Heinlein's novel, Space Cadet. He sold them the rights to the name, and received a weekly royalty check while the show was on the air. However, upon reading some of the scripts after the show had been on for a year (Heinlein had no TV at the time), he was glad that the show aired without a "based on" credit. He didn't want his name directly connected with something so stupid and sophomoric. I can only image what he would think of Trump's Space Farce.

17. Thanks. Didn't know that.
