Some people just have this belief that space should
be for everyone...
In my scenario, it *is* for everyone who is born
at the destination. The only ones that need to
be really small are those very few who actually
cross the great gulf.

Well, Im not sure I follow your reasoning with
that analogy, but I can assure you Adrian,
we will not be able to take very many of the
humans currently on this planet to Mars. spike
