--Chris Vancil says in his sarcastic way:

"PS does this mean you're BD and BarryD?"

Yes it does. I didn't want any of your cohorts to play imposter with me again.

Listen. My 1997 book described that the Vikings on Mars found pressures above the triple point of water. If you don't know what that means - try a high-school physics book. Supports blue Mars right? Temps and pressures on Mars are in excess of liquid CO2. Supports blue Mars right? Clear enough for you? Or are you just in the mood to criticise without basis again?

Now let's put the spotlight on you. Tell us what you know about either blue Mars or White Mars and which you think there is more evidence for and why?

Somehow I don't think you will answer the above -- because your goal it seems, is to criticize anything that does not support sending people to Mars. Little premature don't you think? Considering we can't even return the space shuttle from orbit without mishap.
