[Since Herb was evidently up late, since I was up late also, and
since distribution of this message may stave off many overlapping
responses to Bob Estell and prompt many rebuttals as well, it seems
appropriate to distribute this response from Herb Lin as a special
one-message issue that you can read along with RISKS-3.1. SDI is
probably one of the most significant debate subjects of our lifetimes
and deserves thorough coverage. Yes, it does mix politics and
technology. It must. There is simply no other way. So, don't be
UP IN ARMS-D. But let us keep any subsequent discussion cogent and
sensible. PGN]
