....And Ah-Nuld is on hand to make sure Skynet doesn't **** this one up
as it tried with MER-A, apparently :-)

Yeah, it must be soccer because the landing site's name ends in a vowel.

They could have saved a lot of money on this Mars Exploration stuff if
they'd just asked the Gubenator, since he's BEEN there.

I heard on the radio a few days ago that the initial chemical analyses
from Spirit indicated that the Martian rocks had a high silicone content.
That was suprising to me, I would have expected silicon, but not silicone.\

Maybe the prosthetics they used in Total Recall polluted the Martian
rocks! G

Don't come knockin' if the rover's still rockin'!

We could ask the Biker Mice too, but we'd probably get an answer we don't
understand.

Silicone = polysilicate, right? So quartz = a type of silicone. Or not.

Not remotely.
