Today's Video: Gration Speaks
Editor's update: Interestingly, Gration was the very last to be introduced - and then spoke on behalf of the swarm of generals and admirals on the stage. There should be little doubt that he is hot wired to President-elect Obama. Stay tuned.
Video below
space.com has gone one step further and is reporting that Gration has been asked to be the new NASA administrator:

Editor's note: at the point their article and mine were posted, they were incorrect is stating that he had been asked. He had not been asked. That may have changed during the day today but I stand by my reporting as it was published- when it was published.

I'm sure he'll take and carry out his orders to dismantle the Vision for Space Exploration with enthusiasm. We can forget about ever going back to the moon with this guy in charge.
