It’s time to go back to the moon

I can't say it better, so I'll quote:

Because it's the 38th anniversary of the moon landing, that's why. 38 damn years, people. There ought to be a Starbucks up on the moon by now, and a bunch of tourists experiencing the challenge of sipping a vente latte in one sixth G.

I agree with the sen­ti­ment, but com­pletely out­side of that … I so loved the Eighties. :)

Heh. ‘80s were fun…The music, was odd.

I agree com­pletely about going back to the moon, but how about a Tim Horton’s instead of a Star­bucks? :)

Heh..yeah, a Timmy­Hos would be great. I was recently read­ing about the new space­craft that will get us back to the moon. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orion_(spacecraft)

Now, I’ve not done any read­ing on the Lander yet…gotta pace your­self ;-)
