Hi. Aprox by the year 2020 a laptop will reach the human brain potential for processing data which means that there is a huge market waiting for hundreds of billions dollars to be sold or invested in humanoid robots and intelligent systems. It is the beginning of the bigger industry in human history. Search on Google luisbeck007 you will find the most complete humanoid robot list in the World, good information and interesting issues.

[TheMarkOfTheBeast1]

Branson is such a tosspot.

[xxxhacking]

he has teeth

[henik9]

I can't wait until the ticket price is more affordable for us lesser humans. Say $10,000 or so..

[anintals]

people will die

[SailorBarsoom]

People die already.

[anintals]

yeah shit your right. Tell me, y was everyone so against hitler. Jews die already

[SailorBarsoom]

Branson isn't flat-out killing anybody. Branson is providing people an opportunity to do something which carries a risk of death. Hitler was actively killing people. Not giving them a chance to do something dangerous; actively killing. That's a big difference.

An even bigger difference is that Branson is only providing this opportunity to risk one's life to those who have expressed a desire to take that risk. Hitler was killing people who didn't want to be killed.

[anintals]

how about fidel castro? ooooor harold shipman?

[SailorBarsoom]

Um... Fidel Castro and Harold Shipman killed people who hadn't agreed to take that risk?

Are you intending to list every killer, political or freelance, throughout history? The answer will be the same: Branson is not killing people who want nothing to do with him, but instead is providing an opportunity to do something many have dreamed their whole lives about, and this something contains an element of danger. These people have agreed to accept that danger.

[anintals]

He will decrease our population till we have no one left!!

[SailorBarsoom]

"The meek shall inherit the Earth."

The rest of us are going to the stars.

[anintals]

@SailorBarsoom remind me again about these stars? last time i heard, they were big balls of fire.

[SailorBarsoom]

Oh yes. Huge, gigantic balls of nuclear fusion fire. Many of them put out more energy in an hour than the entire human race has used since we first started building campfires. Our own star, the Sun, does exactly this.

I'm about to walk to the library and see if they have a DVDE of Disney's _Alice in Wonderland_. On the way, I will be taking th erisk that I will be run over, mugged, shot by somebody aiming at something else, or for that matter

durned character limit

[SailorBarsoom]

or for that matter that I will fall down my own stairs and break my neck. But these risks are small, and it's worth taking them, just on the off chance that the DVD I want to watch is available.

How much more risk is it worth to see the Earth from the heavens, or to experience weightlessness, or to take the first private, commercial, suborbital steps that will lead to orbit, the rest of the Solar System, and the stars beyond?

All of life is risk. Some risks are truly worth it.

Ad Astera!

[anintals]

@SailorBarsoom and sum risks are fukin more risky than others. Ur such a cum fart!

[SailorBarsoom]

Well, as long as you were willing to argue points, I was willing to do the same. I didn't even cry foul when you violated Godwin's Law.

But if you are going to belittle yourself by resorting to name-calling, then I really don't have time to waste on you.

Have a nice life, but without me in it. Good bye.

[anintals]

@SailorBarsoom Well id say i validated godwins law more than i violated it. Argue points? i have a single purpose here and that's to irritate :) You sound like a retarded old man with alzheimers. How can you expect me to have a nice life without you in it? Nooooooooooo. Your another gulible victim

[addav79]

do they take airmiles?

[anintals]

no they wont

[amartinjoe]

$200,000 per ride?

I've got 10 bucks in my wallet; how far will that get me?

[6lesni4iy]

Nice craft. I would like to fly on this.

[Deradune]

I can't hear any audio. Is it just me?

[hcm9999]

Yes. I think the sound is mono, not stereo, I can hear only in one ear.

[zezba9000]

Im glad someone independent with money is doing something about NASA's lack of foresight.

Transportation technology makes the world smaller, and forces society's to grow up.

[SPOKENLIBERTY]

Would you look at this...That's great...too bad I can't afford it. Look at the logo...OMG it's an all seeing eye...So sad he's one of them, no wonder he's that successful.

[newgeorge]
