Space Forum / Shuttle / July 2008Russian Astronauts handle explosives on daring spacewalk, while American chills inside.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080711/ap_on_sc/space_station *beginning of a telling, and chilling, excerpt from the article, for fair use and public knowledge The lone American on board, Gregory Chamitoff, was inside the Soyuz for the entire six-hour spacewalk in case an emergency required the two Russians to join him in the capsule. Chamitoff took books, music and a laptop computer with him to while away the time, and could hear everything that was going on. *end of exce rpt from the article, for fair use and public knowledge Yeah, the American just got to hang around inside and wile away inside the Space Staton, while others did the real work. Sure, some might argue that it was the Russians' work to do, since it was their space vehicle, but that argument would seem a bit infantile and vain. > http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080711/ap_on_sc/space_station > [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > argue that it was the Russians' work to do, since it was their space > vehicle, but that argument would seem a bit infantile and vain. Let's see, it's their craft, they're best trained on it. Yeah, I think it's far from an infantile and vain argument. I'd like to know why you think otherwise.

Vain? Er, FYI, subliterate goober, an argument cannot be "vain." Read and learn, goober. Or, better yet, have someone read it for you and explain it to you using only very short words you have at least some chance of comprehending. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/vain Also FYI, sparky, the vast majority of people, and all of those with thumbs, don't consider FACTS to be infantile. Just so you know... Not to mention, you stupid motherf..ker, did you see this, from the very same story you cite? "Spacewalkers Sergei Volkov and Oleg Kononenko managed, in the end, to safely disconnect the bolt from the Soyuz capsule that will be their ride home this fall. They immediately slid it into a blast-proof container." So, your point, you stupid motherf..ker, is you think the lone American, who has ZERO knowledge of or experience with that particular Soyuz capsule and will never fly in it, should have been out there fixing that which he knows entirely not sh.t about instead of the astronauts TRAINED FOR YEARS on Soyuz and who will actually be flying it home? Are you really THAT f.cking stupid? As difficult as it is to fathom, yes, it's entirely possible, even likely, that you are. Forget about rocket science, sparky.

Note that one doesn't have to be of Anglo Saxon origin like Smith or McGee to be a United Statesian. One can be a Chamitoff and be United Statesian. Which might be a detail that just might subliminally affect the other two cosmonauts. SignatureRostyk On Jul 11, 4:57 am, "Rostyslaw J.

In fact, America used to be like this, and if the likes of Bu$h and his cronies, and the corporations and wall street manage to tank the economy, we may be back in that position, simply because no one will be able to afford one of these lawyers and most business establishments would be able to afford the payout (no getting blood from a rock, sorry). Don't get me wrong, companies often do stupid things and need their a.ses sued off, but the sue sue sue everybody has been way out of control for some time now. > position, simply because no one will be able to afford one of these > lawyers and most business establishments would be able to afford the > payout (no getting blood from a rock, sorry).
