Thank you.

I'm afraid  LIT isn't really a university.  There was some intention
origionally that it could develop into an online one, but that didn't happen.
Its just an on-line group that debates ideas about practical mid 21st century
star travel concepts.  Its gotten quieter over the last year or two, but for
the first couple of years their were hundreds of subcribers to the
newsletters, and a lot of debate and analysis.  (You might want to browse
throu the newsletter archives.)  Several of us aer or were people from NASA or
the aerospace busness.  Lots more were everything from students to
submariners.  What you se in the site and the archives is what we came up
with.

Hope this helps.
