> Man these negative people just gets my blood boiling. I am from Norway, so I grew up with the Law of Jante. I am surprised that that law seems to have spread across the globe. I understand where you're coming from. But it is not about all negativity per se. I am quite negative about our progress over the past few decades. But that is because I think we could be doing much, much more. I think it is a combination of seemingly opposite attributes that is the most helpful here. Enough optimism to have faith in the future, and enough pessimism in another part of the brain to catch the bugs before you get taken down by the obstacles. So please don't throw me in with the crab people! :-) Elon Musk has given us a torch for the first time in a long, long time, and if he falters, our cadre shall pick up the fire and continue on. http://millionmarspledge.com/ http://millionmarspledge.com/ AD ASTRA.
