Yeah but private companies are already doing a better job of space flight than NASA. In fact, NASA is booking space flights by private business when they lose their shuttles in the next, what, couple of years.

The "why are they looking for water" thing was a bit tongue-in-cheek. It doesn't lead up to mention the Death Star nearly as well.

Because it would be AWESOME if Halliburton had a monopoly on moon water!

Anyhow, if the weather cooperates, Jerome is having a viewing party Thursday morning for this. I think it's awesome, and I think NASA is awesome, and anyone who says otherwise is an America-hating doo-doo head.

I'd rather have Virgin have a monopoly on moon water. Or Google.

I think at most it will only be traces. I don't think they will find any useable amount but you never know, I guess we'll see Friday morning when they drop the big one

Everyone knows that drinking moon water makes you a werewolf. Jeesh!

And you fuckers thought I was weird for believing a zombie apocalypse could happen. Don't come knocking on my fortress when it happens!

Wait, wrong thread.
