Dear Josh:

Thanks for the copy of your reflections on
Space and Nonefforts Elsewhere. They served to clarify
my own thinking on these difficult subjects although I
guess I would have to confess that I am not quite as
sure as you are that our present orientation towards
space is entirely worth the price of admission.

Sincereay yours,
