Just got back from LA avoiding the "Black Friday" crowd and now, I kid you not, but the "Brown Thursday" Crowd i.e. the day before Black Friday that used to be the holiday formerly called "Thanksgiving" but is now another day to sell you crap that you don't need that will be on sale again at the end of the quarter or year by ultra-low paid employees that need govt. welfare assitance to make ends meet. But hey the gods of Capitalism and their disciples must be obeyed. So while the execs. are at home with their families Joe and Cindy Sixpack are slaving away.

Enough of that rant.

I don't want to derail your conspiracy plot theory-story that follows Allan but I just got back from NASA and trust me they couldn't think up a conspiracy if they had Dan Brown and the late Tom Clancy helping them. Guess what one of the projects they're working on is?

In situ use of materials on the moon and mars. That's right instead of dragging a bag of cement and fifty gallons of water up the moon. Instead they're going to look for water on the moon and use it to create something with the lunar soil.

Who'd have thunk about that one?

Hmmmmm...in situ use of material. Where have I heard that one before. Oh yeah every science fiction story under the sun. Oh wait it isn't a story; man has been doing that since he climbed out of the trees and started making his way across the plains and then the world. Leaving behind a trail of everything from Olduwan bifaces to the great wall of China, the pyramids, highways etc.


The giants that created NASA have gone away. May I gently suggest you take your idea back to the wordprocessor write it up sell it as something you found after digging through the 'archives' and become a F@#$ing millionaire. Everybody else is.
