>> ... We need constructive posts not this one-up-manship crap ... Agreed. If a ham cannot find constructive, educational aspects of the ARISSat-1 project to promote to all audiences, then they do not deserve their amateur radio licenses.
And while we're re-thinking our priorities - let's get ARISSat-1 paid for. There's a widget on AMSAT-NA's home page. You can painlessly drop them a few dollars using PayPal. If you are not a fan of PayPal - don't use that fact as a hurdle to donate. You can call the AMSAT-NA office and give your credit card info over the phone to a live person.
