"Charity": giving money to the needed without any return. Exploring another planet is useless for you then. I am impressed by the scope of your vision. I am sure the next U.S. president will find it a valid one and will scrap this charity. Who needs that, "MARS" ??? There is no money to be made doing "MARS", let's better spend money in important stuff like wars, wars and more wars. |

Why didn't they land it beside the Martian pyramids? http://www.mt.net/~watcher/pyramid.html Double-A |
