Though my goodness girl I admire your perseverance.
I appreciate ophikao's nuanced understanding of the issue too. She recognizes and reminds us of details that otherwise tend to get lost in the fray.
I also admire that she focuses on the issue at hand, and doesn't lob distractions into the discussion. For example, that the TMT is designed to shoot laser beams which will destroy small sovereign nations, or a perfect alternate location for the observatory might be a remote, mountain in India, which might sound good if you ignore minor details like near impossible accessibility and zero infrastructure.
