Who was the last president that had facial hair?

Wikipedia saves the day, it's Taft.

Taft.

Clinton was pretty doughy, though he fluctuated between pretty fat and just kinda fat.

With people in his position it's called, "stately."

It's expensive to get heavy things into orbit. A nuke is lighter than a big chunk of iron. Now, chucking rock off the moon or pulling asteroids maybe.

Yeah, but big chunks of iron are floating around in space.  If you spent the time to come here in a space ship you can take the time to go around the block (as it were) and collect some ammunition.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

A British labourer sees an attractive woman walking along the pavement. He meekly says good morning. The woman gives no impression that she's even heard him or is aware of his existence. British cat calling at its finest? :lol:

Yeah, but big chunks of iron are floating around in space.  If you spent the time to come here in a space ship you can take the time to go around the block (as it were) and collect some ammunition.

If you accelerated it, sure.  As I mentioned before, a gravity drop would require a huge chunk of material.  Accelerating that mass to an effective speed is much harder than simply collecting it.

Presumably accelerating is not a problem since they fly from star system to star system.
