I'm appalled that such destruction could occur and that it has been
left to stand. Let them have their way. One day they will wake up to a
very big surprise.

I gave it a go but had to get a new password and the system may have
treated me as "anonymus" as a consequence? Did any one copy the whole
site while it was up be for the luddite revision? And can we get a
couple of disputed wiki pages loaded to the way back machine?
Every action the luddites take dig a very deep grave for them. Some
argued that Goddard and Von Braun were bogus or frauds. These scientist
argued that Peenemünde need not be bombed. The chance to kill programe
early was was missed. The V2 subsequently killed hundreds. After the V2
was confirmed; one of these scientists retired never returning to a
University campus. Another found himself facing empty class rooms. Most
were simply never consulted by government again. Ironicly a few wound up
working under Von Braun in America after the war.
