Gentlemen, sorry for the delay in replying to your last couple of posts. It was somewhat of an honor to be offered the chance to join you gentlemen on your castle as you flit about the solar system. While I have never been as far out as Mars, I have been to Venus a couple of times and believe me, it is just a fly trap.
The ‘Undead Thread’? I must apologize. I did not know that Zombies were posting here on FR. Apparently not everyone is observing Rule #2...The Double Tap. Alas, I guess that rules are made to be broken.
I think it best that I remain firmly upon terra forma upon which I entered life.
You guys can do me a favor though, next time you go whizzing(huh, huh, I said whizzing...) by the Milky Way, you can grab me some candy bars and you can just drop them off at my mailbox here at FR. So in closing let me just say, May the force be...Live long and pro...rule #4, wear seatbelts.
I've been working on the problem of finding good places to create livable habitats other than on Earth, but here in the Solar System.
Venus offers good possibilities, once one works out the rules for a somewhat different place; just as elevated equatorial locations, which are good places to grow coffee and cocoa beans, have quite comfortable environments for humans as well.
Among other things, the habitats of Venus will be like Dorothy's house on its way to Oz; the scenery might tend to change a bit around them.
Venus' only problem is that the solid ground is too far down from the comfortable temperature and pressure, so folks will have use the air of their greenhouses like the air of a hot-air balloon, and just stay up where it's comfortable.
But my point in bringing up the matter is to suggest that I am planning, as soon as it becomes feasible, to name a little rinky-dink airport in that vicinity "Fly Trap".
It would just be the right thing to do.
*ahem* :whispers: (FYI -- I'm not a "gentlemen; I'm a gentlelady.)
PS: You're forgiven!
