    If it turns out that he also invented Clippy, then please leave him there.

    Why hasn't Gates done this?

    Surely he could afford yearly trips for him and his family.

    @deanbmmv: Maybe he has, but just hasn't told anyone about it. It's like how no one knows that he is building an underwater city to house the world's elite people, and how no one knows that he is spending billions of dollars on genetic enhancements for said people.

    "It looks like you're going to space again.


    Would you like to:


    o Ride on Russian Module

    o Ride on US Space Shuttle

    o Forgo journey and embellish Paper Clip's repertoire."

    The real reason they're shutting this down is because the space tourists started to piss off the real astronauts, constantly taking pictures of everything everyone else takes pictures of, eating in all the places you're supposed to eat at, and spending all their time in space buying goofy t-shirts and mugs.

    6?


    What, are they going to dock a SECOND Soyuz ship for TWO escape pods?


    That's what pissed me off about them canceling the Crew Return Vehicle: The fact that IT was supposed to make a SEVEN person crew possible.


    Very frustrating how politics has run the ISS.
