How long before they find the first Martian Starbucks? Probably right next to the McDonald's and Walmart.
Learning HOW to think is more important than learning WHAT to think.
ya, just release some alge or other brackish tolerant plant and wait a few million/billion years.
THE WORLD IS GOING TO END!!!! eventually.
It even has a name. In Martian the word "Grok" means "to know", "to eat", "body" and, of course "water".

That black stuff looks more like oil to me... Maybe mr. Bush will rush to Mars next.

Going to Mars would probably suck. For example, I think living in Anarctica sounds a lot better. I predict the population of Mars will never exceed that of Antarctica.
You know, the Spanish empire ignored North America because it thought it was just a useless, barren wasteland. I can imagine them saying something similar. The Moon is a like Antarctica, Mars is more like northern Canada - difficult, but liveable.
Mars is constantly leaking gases
Sounds like my dad after a couple of burritos

Water on Mars? Woah...that might make some really kick ass bong water!
How long before the first paper mill?
Take a dish of water and put it under vacuum. See how it boils? That's lower pressure causing boiling at lower tempurature, son.
Hmmm, mine's not boiling. Do I have to plug the vacuum in first? Hmmm, no change.
