Good one, George

Marshall to offer buyout to 250

So in order to return to the moon, NASA is trying to get rid of researchers and support personnel in areas not relevant to the moon plan. About 250 would be bought out at Marshall in Huntsville, more than 1,100 in five facilities nationwide. To reach a purely symbolic goal, they're gutting pure science programs.

"To reach a purely symbolic goal, they're gutting pure science programs."

I think you just covered that theme with the abstinence-only ed post.

(Actually, you should probably write a macro that pastes that sentence into whatever your typing. I'm sure it will be used a lot before 2008).

That's assuming all their goals are symbolic. Some of them are just bad goals.
