I see the dynamic duo (turd bird and pap smear) have made a mess over on Bangshift.com so I thought they might be resurfacing here.

The October issue of National Geographic Adventure magazine and the October issue of Popular Science
magazine both wrote articles about the NAE. The PS one was not to flattering and glorified the Bloodhound
project in order to make the NAE project look like a bunch of amateurs compared to the very intelligent and well managed British. The NGA article on the other hand, was more complimentary and friendly toward us Americans. I was more than a little pissed when much of the scientific explainations about the shock wave and mitigation of said issue was attributed to Noble when in fact I was the one who spent many many phone calls working with the PS writer explaining to them how that all works. At the same time, I do have to admit that on the Wednesday, as the story is told, that the team members (after three previous long hard days) did sleep in. What do you expect from a team comprised of volunteers that pay their own way and do this for the love of it, not the money. I make no appologies for them, they are grown adults and know how to make their way in this world.

The media has a way of printing what they think will sell. I hate to do interviews with them in the timing trailer. I have the PS mag and agree with you, it was very one sided.

I may be way offbase on this, but I beleive Popular Science is a British owned magazine so that may explain the slanted views.
