$300 for one book? That's worse than my situation. -

I just spent $518.68 on books and there's still one that I have to buy later. #Ridiculous. -

@lnxwalt280 after the fiscal sponsorship discussion @nrlucre and I just had, I am able to say with more conviction that the best thing you can do to help #NEF at this point is just to talk to potentially interested parties about the organization -

@mv, @nrlucre and I talked to Tony of SFC today about #NEF and he said that really need to have a good idea of what groups would use money for. I know you just talked to Walton about joining (if you have yet today), but I guess that's the next step. -

83, feels like 101...huh? -

ok, when I get back from the park (see email) I'll change the listing. I don't think there's any reason to get resumes for the fall semester at this point. -

@nrlucre if we had an intern that wanted to stay on, do you think we should make them re-apply? -

@nrlucre I'm thinking I'll change the idealist listings to be for the spring semester. Thoughts? -

I hope this asshat gets eaten: http://mashable.com/2012/08/01/real-life-jurassic-park/ -- Actually, I hope it all works out, but there would be justice in such an outcome after contradicting common sense. -

@nrlucre did you want to touch base with Tony again about setting a time. He suggested lunch, but we never heard back from you about that suggestion. -

but that being a violation is precisely my point. In theory, we don't know how our weapons would work in space. Hopefully we meant peaceful aliens and aren't complete dicks to them. I'm not optimistic about either. -

and in case you are planning on blasting into space...definitely not legal advice. -

I'd have to look at the case law around it, but my guess is that war communications are "peaceful" because they are just communications. I assume spying could be justified in similar ways. I am unaware of any weapons testing in space. Has that happened? That would be a violation. -

@nrlucre not happy about going from 8 to 4, but thems the breaks I guess. Maybe we'll get some late-comers to the other two emails. -

Just to be clear, I was referring to the conception of sovereignty in the older Hobbes. I really don't care about the cartoons. -

I see there is a separate moon treaty, but if you look at the text of the 1967 treaty it says "The moon and other celestial bodies shall be used by all States Parties to the Treaty exclusively for peaceful purposes." -- I'm not sure what the later treaty was supposed to do. -
DJ Dougernaut (douglasawh)'s status on Wednesday, 01-Aug-2012 13:02:36 EDT DJ Dougernaut
according to Wikipedia "As of October 2011, 100 countries are states parties to the treaty" -

according to my international law book it went into force on October 10, 1967 -

I was wondering how long you would let me go. Not far, it seems. -

if we are ever get attacked by beings from outer space, we are going to regret the 1967 Outer Space Treaty. #justsayin
