I like rail guns.. that's a great technology perfectly suited to this sort
of thing.

Well someone will protest that Jon. They worry about launch vehicles
exploding on takeoff ect..

Packing it into projectiles and making a rail gun that could launch
them into deep space would be a safe way, plus you could even shoot at
stars.

But should we pollute deep space?

Actually, a fair number of former rabid anti-nuke environmentalists

now saying the same thing. I support AP.

Let's roll!

Let's..and that little waste problem..you people never heard of
depleated uranium shells?
You can get rid of them at super sonic speeds.

If man is causing global warming, then man can cure it.

There is only one viable option -

Atomic Power!

Just like the French, we can replace all of our power plants with
atomic
powered plants. We can heat houses with sub critical nuclear piles
that
simply generate heat. These same piles can also power cars. We can
go
to
an all nuclear Navy and atomic powered aircraft and rockets. There
have
even been nuclear batteries and nuclear powered medical implants!

Nuclear energy is proven to be safe and clean. The nuclear industry
creates high paying tech jobs. We can export our nuclear expertise
to
lesser developed countries.

Rather than waste money on silly global warming studies and even
sillier
solar power schemes, it's time to roll up our sleeves and get those
atoms
smashing!

More nukes and less kooks!
