Can we send Hillary over there in person, and have her stay?

[Lokibob]

I didn't do any searches of names. Wonder if she is on the list. LOL

[Neanderthal]

Let's put Barbara Lee on the list. Isn't she the one that thought that the Apollo mission had landed on Mars?

[ofMagog]

No, thanks. I don't need spam from there, too...

[Lokibob]

NASA??? SPAM????

Besides, all they ask was my name on the certificate. LOL

RightWhale is there now. Why a Whale is on Mars, who knows.

[Lokibob]

wow, judging from the cert #'s, there were 2,000 people signed up in less that 1/2 hour.

[ofMagog]

I was kidding. I sent my and my neighbor Elvis Presley's names.

[Lokibob]

Besides, I welcome all spam from Mars.

[TomServo]

Heh heeeeeeeee....Tom Servo, Gypsy and Crow T. Robot are registered several times. LOL!!!

[anymouse]

Space ping.

[My2Cents]

Mike Nelson? Pearl Forrester? The Observer?

[mombonn]

I want Sheila Jackson-Lee to sign my certificate.

[My2Cents]

Ack!!! I shouldn't have sent them my phone number!!!!

[My2Cents]

There are also 12 registrations for "Fox Mulder" and about 15 for "George W. Bush." By now, NASA's probably sorry they opened up this little can of worms.

[TomServo]

Nah, I didn't do a search for them. They're probably there, though.

[Lokibob]

I counted 20 George W. Bushes (but didn't do G. W. Bush, prob more with that).

Since it is just going to be 1 cd, I don't guess that NASA really cares.

[fishbabe]
