In the past, ULA's manifest has been made up largely of Air Force block buy launches. With SpaceX's certification nearing completion and ULA's next generation rocket being announced, do you see ULA's manifest shifting to include a larger number of commercial customers and do you think ULA will retain the majority of the Air Force launches available in the future?

On the Shuttle, the RS-25s were frequently reused, but on the SLS they will be expendable. What kind of changes, if any, go into the engine design/manufacturing/etc... when reusability isn't part of the plan?
