<VV> RE: Interesting Article ...NOW Engineer (no Corvair)

[Keith Hammett]

Took my kids to the Marshfield Days (Marshfield Missouri) last weekend, NASA
was there with a scaled model of the shuttle and lots of other interesting
things.  While I was talking to the gentleman from NASA he mentioned that
the main reason that they do this is to inspire kids to take math and
science.  They are having a hard time getting Engineers and Scientist these
days.  They picked going to Marshfield because it is the birth place of
Edwin P. Hubble.

Uh, not really.  They CLAIM to speak English but their accent is worse than
people from Tennessee!!!!

We don't need engineers in America because we don't make anything hear
anymore.  We only need purchasers and lawyers (of course).  I wonder who'll
be buying all the goodies made "over there" when we don't have any good jobs
left.  Well, there's always the gummint I guess.
