He looked like a politician, stupid way to settle a political dispute. You vote them out you

Re: BA: Cosmos will hit the air once again!

Re: can we make our velocity faster then light!

Ann,
Sounds reasonable, except it could make for a really boring conversation and I would imagine you would
use up a lot of fuel to talk to yourself. :)
