chris_gerribA quick break from Space, The Final Frontier to point out Roger Ebert's wonderful article 10 Things I know about the mosque. Ebert points out the obvious - it's not a mosque, it's a community center, and not on Ground Zero - while defending the right of the Imam to build it. He even points out that the strippers at the neighborhood strip clubs (talk about "sacred ground") are okay with it!
Ebert thinks it would be prudent to move the thing now that the radical wing-nuts have their panties in a wad, which I'm not sure I agree with, but otherwise, I agree with Ebert. Go read the whole thing. I'll probably post Part 3 of my space colonization thoughts later today.
