Sad to say - that probably describes me to a greater or lesser extent. I've just resigned myself to the reality that "in my lifetime" will probably have to extend out to 150 years of so - hence my current interest in nanotech.

First of all, your tagline on this blog is misleading. This isn't by someone, it apparently has several contributors.
And one man's Kool-Aid is another space tragic's slim hope for the future.
Badger,
while your comment is correct, i should clarify by saying that when i first set this blog up it was meant to be my own opinion on the space sector. I have been fortunate enough to have 3 people i respect join me as contributors to this blog. I will amend the tag line accordingly.
Best regards,
