I would like a second pic of that area to see if the "bug" with antennae [above the accreted crinoid] has moved any.

Seems to me the "strongest evidence of a wet Mars" would be actual water, in any form. Has anyone found any or are we still fascinated by the "it used to be here" argument?

It would seem that with all the mention of "signs of water" on Mars, without any actual water being found, that we are being fed the search for water (and thus, the possibility of colonization) as justification for launching (as Fred Reed puts it) "a bunch of golf carts to another planet".

I actually like th eidea of space exploration and the benefits that (eventually) trickle down into our daily lives (I don't know what we would do without Tang), but it seems someone is confusing the trees with the forest -- the search for water, while important, seems to have become the central point of the whole excercise.
