Interesting. I wonder if he could possibly mean a decommissioned ICBM? If so, I'm thinking they might have a spot for him at the Daily News.

I know, I just think it's sad when someone reporting on space-related news evidently doesn't know the difference between a launcher and a payload/warhead. :)

The Wail will like to scare the world witless. They like scare headlines and take umbrage with many things and trumpet that from the roof tops.

They make good chip paper though.

Sounds like the Young Turks; make up something offensive and then howl your indignation.
