zapsats
Bill Vaughan (msg of 24 May 18:19 cdt) strongly advocates x-ray zapsats
as an ultimate ICBM defense. He says they "are cheap to build and launch
(low mass)..". How cheap ? How low is the mass ? It is difficult to
present any reasonable argument without further details.
Rejection of information just because it appears in a particular 
publication does not project an aura of objectivity. Richard Garwin is 
not without reputation as a strategic weapon analyst, and Aviation Week 
is not completely without bias.
Let us have more facts and fewer flames.
