[ExI] SpaceX launch

[Dan]

My comment which kicked this off was: "What I'm really waiting to see is private 
launcher to a private space station -- not a private launcher that's merely 
another government contractor." I'm not understanding what seems to me to be a 
rather sarcastic response. Yes, I know there are no private space stations for a 
SpaceX manned rocket to go to at this time. I was expressing my desire to see 
these.

Regards,

Dan

"Being worked on" is not the same as actually having a
private space station in orbit.  Until that happens, no
private launcher can actually launch to it - so they have
to settle for launching to the ISS.
