No way in Hell I am going voluntarily on a one way trip to Mars. I love Earth and all of the things that I am used to and cherish. Mars has nothing I want. My idea of heaven on Earth is a tropical beach in Tahiti or the Seychelles not a frozen wasteland.

:D
If Reese Witherspoon was with me I'd probably commit suicide after 20 minutes.

wow... pretty even .... I'm suprised at the number of yes's. But when it really came down to it, would you do it? I doubt half the people that said yes would.

Edit: New computer....well....the lag downlinking to earth to the earth-internet would be approx. 9 min....so prepared to get owned in each and any online game you intend to play :)

in all honesty, I'd be the first one to go.

In fact, it's my dream to either be on Earth working for the colonization of Mars and other planets or actually colonize Mars myself

A sacrifice like that would echo through time forever

Well, at least no one can say you are using lag as an excuse for sucking...
