Has there ever been a tally done of how much this defense would have cost if there were not kick-ass non-profit constitutional warriors like the NYCLU and the ACLU?

How great were they?

Were you a card carrier before this all went down?

Alright. You caught me. I expended almost my entire knowledge of the Tektite on the question.

I have been to the site at Lamshur Bay, St. John, the site of the original Tektite 'base.' These are pretty small islands where not a lot of important things happen. The Tektite program is pretty well known here, but we often relish in the very obscure. The little reading that I've done online didn't clarify the scope of the program much.

Was the Tektite work in the VI considered important? Groundbreaking? What lessons were learned that will change the way that the Atlantica project will be done?

I am sure you are aware of the Tektite programs that were conducted in the US Virgin Islands.

I am curious as to a professional's opinion of the program generally. How important are they considered? What are the biggest takeaways?

Rock on.
