Oh well, think I'll watch Dancing With the People I've Never Heard Of.
They wasted an incredible amount of taxpayer money on a that concord boondoggle that could never, ever break even.
It lost $$$$ every time they fired the engines, even with people paying $6500 for a one way trip. it was that innefficient.
t was so loud people didn't want it anywhere near them, there was nothing about it that was rational, logical, or reasonable.

It was bad idea fueled by irrational emotion.
If people want to build things like that they should do it with their own money, not the taxpayer's money.
