One of the funniest things to get accustomed to while in the USA is the strange way democracy is translated.

One of those strange ways is to be able to petition the government directly.

The general link is here

https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/

However this leaves open the crazy lunatic factor which have a democratic right to express themselves and so I give you

https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petitio...r-2016/wlfKzFkN

Quote:

Those who sign here petition the United States government to secure funding and resources, and begin construction on a Death Star by 2016.

By focusing our defense resources into a space-superiority platform and weapon system such as a Death Star, the government can spur job creation in the fields of construction, engineering, space exploration, and more, and strengthen our national defense.


Fortunately for us all Maciej Marosz is not a USA citizen and can't petition smile

MAY THE FORCE BE WITH US.

I believe in "Evil, Bad, Ungodly fantasy science and maths", so I am undoubtedly wrong to you.

I think we need to concentrate our efforts on getting a working hyper-drive so we can take it somewhere. Unless you're proposing to use it on Earth, in which case no way. The thing about having a weapon is that once you have it, you want to use it, test it out so to speak. Not my idea of a fun weekend. I think if we explore the other dimensions of Calabi-Yau space we may find the answers to super-luminal travel. It would require being able to access those other dimensions and translate objects and humans through the portal that makes up its interface with our three dimensions.

I wonder if they have considered the friendly fire possibilities.

Hey I am wandering around here at the moment and trust me most of them live on a different planet smile
