    We had a discussion at lunch time on the question: If NASA came to you tomorrow and said 'You've been picked for the mission to mars, get your bags...' Would you go? I said yes, I would go without hesitation, as did one other person. The other 4 all said no (for various perfectly valid reasons). I felt it was the ultimate adventure and a chance to do something tremendously exciting and unique. What would you say and why?

    Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet.

      If the round trip could be made in less than a month, then maybe. More than that, forget about it, I'd go out of my freakin' mind. :wtf: :omg:

        Not for me thanks. I see absolutely no need to leave this beautiful place I live on now. Heck, if I need to get off this planet then I sure won't find any peace and beauty anywhere else. Besides, why go to Mars? For what? Just to say I was first? Who would clean up the shiyte you leave behind? They don't even play rugby there. You won't find a decent cappuccino. If you want to put it in perspective search YouTube for videos of The Pub Landlord, Al Murray, and watch his argument about the US going to the moon and how pointless that was. I'm sure you Yankees would soon establish another World Series on Mars and would have the same number of countries taking part, namely, one. There'd also be no pets, no rubbish dumps, no global warming, no pollution, no wars (initially). In short bugger all. I'll stay where I am. 127.0.0.1. There's no place like home.

          Absolutely yes, simply because there is nothing holding me here, and it's something I've wanted to do all my life. The few who would miss me would smile and wish me godspeed... :)

                There'd be no beer. As for women, they'd take them along, including a gas cylinder...
