    I'm working on my own private rocket ship so that I can prove you all wrong. I'll send you postcards from the pyramid mines.

    People don't give much thought to the garbage food they consume on this planet, so what's the problem? Bon appétit!

    I don't know about that. You can get an awful far way in 40 years. Maybe not Mars, but the Moon?

    As I see it, the perchlorates that they found really don't mean that much.

    Some earth organisms actually eat them.

    Then again, it just may be that they decided to take their sample in an area with a lot of perchlorates. The soil on earth is not all uniform, why should we expect mars to be different?

    What about deep underground or at the poles where there are deposits of ice? Just because it's not carbon based life on the surface that we expect to find doesn't mean that SOMETHING isn't alive on the entire planet of Mars.


    Beware the beast, man, for he is the Devil's pawn. Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him, drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of death.
    - 23rd Sacred Scroll, 6th verse
