What have we lear--mmmphh!!!!!?!?!

[Plastic Self-Cleaning Duck]

I learned that a giant spacecraft will not have a shuttle capable of carrying seven people.

I never thought of that before, so in the future there are no laws that say you have to have enough lifeboats for all people on board, wonder how all historical info on the Titanic was lost and forgotten?

They're carrying a payload worth how many millions of dollars....the Company wants to encourage the crew to fight for that as long as possible.  To the last two or three of you....

And then when you get back they can railroad you and ruin your career.

[Doctor Who?]

I learned that in the future space travel will have no goverment oversight at all and once the big corps get you into space they can do whatever they want to you with out any fear of the goverment doing anything to them or your next of kin suing them into the stone age.

I learned that cats of the future know now to use the intercom, leading to the whole second "cat looking for" sequence.

Yeah, I know this topic is dead. I'm only just now catching up.

By pure coincidence, my last name is Jones. Also by pure coincidence, I'm drinkiing Corbett Canyon Wine.
