It must be asked. Why go to Mars? For no good reason really.
Humans must determine why we are attempting to establish a means to which sustained, and maybe even permanent, life be possible away from home(earth).
The answer is obviously to preserve the race. We need to be able to pack the bags, run out the back door, and say goodbye and never come back.
So, why then just see if we can go to Mars ? We need to have the best scientists, funded by the wealthiest entities, researching possible ways to live in space for indefinite amounts of time. Maybe a colony on another satelite would be the best first step. And that colony would have to be able to provide for it's new inhabitants with enough resources to sustain us and power our machinery. This way, by having effectively settled in two relatively distinct locations of space, we have increased our chances of survival two fold.
But it's not enough. We would need to accomplish the same goals as often as possible. Also,work would have to be done on a self-sustaining space city/shuttle/satelite.
Oh well. Just my opinion. Not that it really matters.
Considering that we have probably only evolved to a fraction of that of some of our nearest celestial neighbours, I think that if anything we should be masking our presence rather than attempting to announce it. We may just end up inviting the schoolyard bully into our sandbox when we have no right to be throwing sand just yet. After all, considering evolution and the vastness of time and space, isn't it reasonable to assume that there are life forms in the universe that would see us as insignificent and potentiallly exploitable? Or worse yet, dispensible! Hyperspace bypass anyone?
But, by all means, lets continue the search for ET.
Its just a busted AE-35 unit. Once the AI onboard the ship discovers the faulty equipment, it will eradicate the vermin (ie american influence on space station ).
The comparison between the Canadian and American dollar is relative, of course. The quality of life here in Canada is second to none. The conversion may not be great but from what I hear hourly wages and salaries in the great ol' US_of_A don't amount to shit.
holy f*ck this thread is pathetic! get a life people. i sit here, compelled, reading in expectation and hope that you shitbats will get hold of yourselves and get back to the original discussion. its amazing really.

Ron Jeremy is pretty darned lucky I'd say!!!

Yes, but isn't Debian stable intended for serving and not for desktop use?
The testing branch is used for testing the next stable branch, and Unstable is typically reserved for desktop users.
My testing/sid hybrid is super stable and up to date. More so than any rpm based distro i've ever used.
