  9. Debate? on Google-Backed Wind-Powered Car Goes Faster Than the Wind · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Sailing vessels can go faster than the wind, why shouldn't a car be able to?

  10. Re:20 minute delay ... on Mars500 Mission Begins · · Score: 1

    'Isn't the purpose of life to do something meaningful, for which you will be remembered?'

    Have they thought of asking BP to buy a textile mill?
