Excellent. Wish I had more time to respond to this but point well made. With enough supplies I believe Mars is habitable. There just wouldnt be a return mission. I agree with you about the money. We cant afford it right now. Too bad... I'd

I'm saying that it should be more of a priority amongst the general public. I didn't say it should take priority over other forms of research. =)

Agreed. It really is a matter of prioritizing. With the way things are going on this planet one would think this would be a higher priority. Increasing our chances of survival as a species should be a high priority but it seems we can't s

How do you figure? If anything space exploration is research intensive. We have done a lot of research in space and even on the ground before we got there. I'm curious as to what you mean by pure research.

As long as we continue to be human we will always have 'internal' problems. The big picture is that Earth is a single point of failure and the clock is ticking away. Mars should be a higher priority but I don't expect the government to solv

Plenty of Oak trees still here in Cambridge PG as I'm sure you recall. Just beautiful this time of year. =) I'd miss them if they were gone too.

Are users of HN free agents or does good karma imply they must never disagree with anything coming from one particular source..?

Yeah I use FW for all my projects. Much easier than PS for web stuff. PS was really designed for print anyway while FW was designed from the beginning to be a web designer's tool.

Yeah quite true. FB & Twitter are #1 in their markets (Twitter being a true innovation) not b/c they have a few million users but b/c they have 10s of millions and in FB's case 100s of millions. No one even knows about the #2s in that s

Flightcaster stands out as the most interesting here. Not sure about the revenue model they'd use for it but definitely a cool app. EDIT: They charge for their mobile apps. Maybe something like this is better off being ad supported?

Me neither. I got the cached front page. Not sure he was expecting a lot of traffic today. It's a shame since this product looks really cool from the descriptions and screen shots I can make out from the cached page. Love the landing page t
