... you've also been an apologist for Tumlinson's space entrepreneur fantasies from day one, despite all the critical evidence to the contrary.

If i had the money & inclination for such a flight, i certainly wouldn't be wasting my time with MirCorp - i'd go straight to the Russians; & hope that the realisation that Energiya can make more money more easily selling scientific seats to governmental agencies like CNES hasn't filled up all the available seats ahead of me.

(After all: Shuttleworth has almost been kicked off the flight twice; while the CNES astronauts have been quiet as lambs)

Talk - even in NASA Watch - is cheap. When MirCorp can actually put someone on Soyuz, i'll believe that they have reestablished a trust with the mainstream of Russia space that their financial antics in 2000 & early 2001 destroyed.
