  Virgin territoryCheck out http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-sc ... 9695.story :
The Virgin Space Ship Enterprise is unveiled. Branson is another D.D. Harriman clone. If we were giving out Heinlein entrepreneurial awards, he'd get several. Way to go. |

Re: Virgin territory If we were to present such an award what would we call it? Certainly it couldn't be called a "Heinie"
