    Wow, either that's the uber-troll of the decade, or you got off the bus at the wrong stop.

    But whatever, I'll bite.

    Reason number one to build a moonbase: ITS REALLY F---ING COOL TO HAVE A BASE ON THE FRICKIN MOON YOU SAD-SACK PARTY-POOPER!

    Reason two (and somewhat more PRACTICAL): H3. When we finaly get fusion power going on, that stuffs gonna be really useful, and having people up there to get it will be a big win.

    So there. Put those in your pipe and smoke them. I'm right because I say so.
