I think it's simpler than that: institutional bias. The Gehman Board was composed largely of people from Big Government. They don't see anything wrong in the idea of having a single, government-run space program. They really believe NASA can solve its problems and keep flying. Reading between the lines, I'm not sure they all believe NASA -will- solve its problems...but they all believe in NASA as a concept. -R -- Son: Dad, I have a question about women.
