I also hate to be techno-pesimistic, but this is *rockets* you are talking
about. So, I'd like to point out that Gary Hudson has been involved in
many, many rocket projects, all failures. I applaud his determination. In
my opinion, he is a brilliant salesman, and can attract funding to any
rocket project at all. Since his job in this curent endevour is not a
technical one, I am sure he is an asset to the project. In my opinion, all
of his technical ideas of the past were doomed due to a lack of respect for
simplicity, and I am not speaking out of hindsight. For that matter, most
space launch projects suffer the same problem.
