Then those of you who want what the rest of us DONT may feel free to pass the plate amongst yourselves, and spare the majority of us your expensive hobby toward a condo on Mars.

Classic. The key to human colonization in space is finding the product/service that will pay the way. So far it hasn't been successful. Space Cadets, continue to wear your thinking caps.

I hope you're not blaming ME for that comment ---it wasn't me who said that--- I agree with you. If certain people are looking for a thrill or a new home then they can pay their way, I should hope the space missions are to further scientific knowledge and help in our defense ---like Star Wars but none of that requires humans.
