Oh, yeah. We're real pros.
Let's imagine for a minute that we can magically create the perfect atmosphere and dump enough water onto mars to make it habitable. How are we going to keep it there without a geomagnetic field? It's a dead planet.

My assumption is that it'll be more like Heinlein imagined he moon, all in caves. Maybe aboveground enclosures. Not at all a mistake that it's all fiction... So far in history. The future may surprise us. In the mean time, I'll be picking up my new earthly chariot soon. Probably Friday. Almost excited! Have to sell the Prius now though.

I swear I saw someone grow potatoes on mars. I have hope.

Just have to throw enough money at it. The question is "why?" Seems utterly pointless to me. If that kind of funds are there, I'd much rather they send rovers to Titan and Europa. Much more interesting with their liquid hydrocarbon lakes and water ice and shit. |

Parents got me a new motherboard for my birthday. Windows decided that after the new motherboard install, I had a new computer and would need a new copy of Windows.
After about 10 minutes of jumping through hoops with an automated call center, following a internet link, entering some numbers from my computer on my phone and then entering some numbers from my phone on my computer, I have my copy of Windows restored. What a relatively painless process. |

I never understood upgrading a mobo without upgrading to a newer socket for a newer CPU. Then again, I usually keep stuff for a few years which doesn't seem like your style. |
