JimO: This is the same guy, five years ago, who blamed the Canadian woman
Judith Lapierre for all the

tensions in the space isolation simulator when she was such a spoilsport
about being french kissed by

amorous russian crewmates -- and who wouldn't open the latch to let her out
until she withdrew her

emailed complaints. Discussed in my book 'Star-Crossed Orbits'. Will a few
'fragile and delicate creatures'

go up to his office and kick the living daylights out of him, please?

MOSCOW, February 10 (RIA Novosti) - There would be probably no women on the
first flight to Mars, Director of the Institute of Medical and Biological
Problems (IMBP), academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, member of
the Presidential Council on Sciences and Education Anatoly Grigoryev
announced after his speech in front of the students of the Moscow
International University.

"After all, women are fragile and delicate creatures; that is why men should
lead the way to distant planets and carry women there in their strong
hands," the head of IMBP said with a smile.
