As the pragmatic soul that I am, I think you...Kid:<br /><br />As the pragmatic soul that I am, I think your premise here needs work. <br /><br />The basic assumption of this Mars trip of yours is that anybody who wants to go would be considered a candidate. Somebody like Cletus Spuckler (the slack jawed yokel of Simpsons fame) could just wake up one morning in their double wide hovel, and state 'hey, thar, Brandine (Cletus' better half), I gots me a hankerin' to go to Mars, start packin' the cardboard boxes, yahooooo!'<br /><br />Ever read Tom Wolfe's book 'The Right Stuff?' The most qualified men (no women were even remotely considered) lined up in droves to volunteer for the U.S. manned (no, not 'womened') space program. And of those highly qualified droves, who held ph.D's, were decorated combat fighter jet pilots, etc., a meager handful were selected.<br /><br />And what would flush an otherwise perfect physically conditioned, brilliant candidate from the program? Just the smallest little things would get one of these supermen (no, not super women) expelled. You had to have 'the right stuff.' Just what that 'stuff' was composed of, nobody could exactly put a finger on it. Only perfect candidates were selected. No flaws in personality, no physical imperfections, none of that would make the cut. The perfect only need apply.<br /><br />And here you have the Great Unwashed all thinking about quitting their jobs as garbage collectors and Houston, TX congresswomen, boarding your rickety, slip shod space ship packed with MRE's and heading off to Mars.<br /><br />Don't you think that there might be a selection process that would weed out folks like Sheila Jackson Lee, Maxine Watters, a garbage collector, a ditch digger and their imbecilic ilk?<br /><br />Hmmm. Then again, Barack Obama is now calling the NASA shots, and his policy is that NASA's main mission is Muslim outreach. I am guessing that all Mars expedition candidates must wear burkahs instead of space suits. <br /><br />Maybe I should rethink MY premise, huh Kid?<br /><br />Freddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10778430453468720627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323117222166894889.post-74205575299319007982013-03-03T00:33:45.016-05:002013-03-03T00:33:45.016-05:00I have trouble leaving my mini-farm here in LA to...I have trouble leaving my mini-farm here in LA to go to visit family/friends in MI-Montana- and NC- <br />WHY would I want to go to a foreign planet!!! ??<br />Carol-CSchristian soldierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04781627688988991192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323117222166894889.post-69014232536621257432013-03-02T14:10:12.435-05:002013-03-02T14:10:12.435-05:00TCL, I'll get to work on that.TCL, I'll get to work on that.Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05287399775879832602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323117222166894889.post-84398694625596647262013-03-02T14:09:48.988-05:002013-03-02T14:09:48.988-05:00JonBerg, and would they survive the tripJonBerg, and would they survive the tripKidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05287399775879832602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323117222166894889.post-31873795776119850042013-03-02T14:09:08.429-05:002013-03-02T14:09:08.429-05:00They Say, no not at all..They Say, no not at all..Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05287399775879832602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323117222166894889.post-23490183704552735502013-03-02T11:33:25.775-05:002013-03-02T11:33:25.775-05:00I certainly wouldn't want to take a trip to Ma...I certainly wouldn't want to take a trip to Mars, but I'd like to launch some of those folks you mentioned in the beginning of the post into space.The Conservative Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03669596582233642119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323117222166894889.post-72786029918667678102013-03-02T02:14:05.094-05:002013-03-02T02:14:05.094-05:00"Maybe it's you and your wife,"
