Elitist Upper-Class Snobbery

Hi All

Comments like that of Rees really come from an upper-class attitude that decries the natural world being sullied by the "commoners". He's against terraforming because it will let the "hoi polloi" spoil a pristine Mars...

Vote me out of supporting any such elitist garbage.
