How Does NASA Screw In A Light Bulb?

The Columbia disaster is no laughing matter. Like other significant events, I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing when it happened. In fact, I think either I called SpaceMonkey that morning, or he called me; both of us were in shock. But you have to admit, leave it to a bunch of federally funded engineers to drastically overcomplicate a launch vehicle.
It's time for NASA to get out of the Earth orbit exploration business and finish passing that on to private enterprise. NASA is still a good fit for extra-planetary exploration, and the universe is a pretty big place. Yay Cassini-Huygens, Spirit, and Opportunity. I would say yay Deep Impact, but he's in itty bitty pieces now. Nice job anyway.
Mr. Rutan has got to be feeling pretty good about his accomplishment. If KISS (keep it simple stupid) ever shows up in Webster's, his picture should be included for he has mastered the art of simplicity.
My hat's off.
