fresh water shortages...comp_atkinsThat's actually a pretty creative idea. But seriously, I don't think we'll be able to predict the next big scare. I mean, were you able to predict AIDs or H1N1?

It is like speed.
it *is* speed. amphetamines = speedThen I stand corrected. It is speed, only it makes you want to work. Hard to describe. You just sit there working, and nothing makes you happier. Unfortunately, it rapes your appetite and gives you insomnia. But, if you are fat, then don't worry about the prior. Oh, and it dehydrates you something fierce.
Is that even safe to do like that?It's a common misconception. Now, let me think about this... It's not actually the land itself they own--yes, people do have ownership of some aspect of the moon--but rather... the uh... space, or something, above a certain area? I'm not sure that's it and typing it now seems so wrong. All I know is that you're both right and wrong.[QUOTE="cpo335"]No he doesn't. There is an internatioanlly accepted law stating that one, including countries, cannot claim territory on the moon as their own. You cannot own land on the moon no matter what.DigitalExile
People do own peices of the moon, just not the "land".
No, you're wrong. See the 1967 United Nations Outer Space Treaty.See: http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Outer_Space_Treaty_of_1967
