Canada needs me too much.

On the other hand, it's an even drier cold there.

I'm glad you didn't mention strip clubs. They'd be a bit impractical on Mars.

I couldn't mention it.

If you see the "Class" thread I am now established middle class.

One has to raise the posting bar to reflect their society standing.

If there was a realistic chance of going. I'd be there in a shot.
As would Ben

In true geek fashion, we discussed this before we got married. If one of us had the chance to go into space, the other had to let them

What is the availability of reasonably priced cheese like on Mars? Can I get decent beer? Sky TV? Will my UK big screen TV work there? Is it true they only get 2 days vacation on Mars?

There must be a "Mars Live" event somewhere I can go to to answer these questions...

You forgot to ask about the availability of block heaters and the economic efficiencies of snow tyres on mars.....I assume you will be going 'for the kids':thumbsup::thumbsup:
