For those of us who were around last year, this is EXACTLY how it went down. Hoagkland promised "disclosure" at the September ESA conference. When it didn't happen, he claimed discloasure WAS happening, only in a very subtle way. Now he's claiming the big build up Elenin had was justified by the mobs now "occupying" some cities.

It's likely then that they sat Mike down for one interview before the season started, and asked him questions on the topics this season was going to cover. A lot of what you are likely to get from such long interviews (especially when dealing with someone like Mike) is very stream of consciousness related. That is, he just said what ever came to mind. You aren't getting a comment on actual space history (a topic he doesn't really know anything about anyway) as much as just some cool sounding BS he just thought up.Chris Lopeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15603182786879935663noreply@blogger.com
