I, like Mike, had no idea about this kind of thing. Once again you have opened my eyes. I'm always astounded at the facts you come up with in your poems.

This came to me from a engineering web site that I visit regularly. You put out some interesting poems yourself.

Had no idea about this. It seems we are in a race to destroy our planet... These ships, just one of many accelerants
