you keep missing the point

No one else has claimed Mars was a good point for an NEO search basis yet you seemed to imply they did.

"...In all honesty, the Moon probably isn't the best place to set up the first asteroid tracking base (I'm biased towards the EML-1 point for its long term utility, but that's another immensely long post), but Mars certainly is no better, if not a whole lot worse."

Who ever claimed it was better and why did you bring it up if you didn't think anyone had?

"...As if the early Martians are really going to be at all concerned with any kind of astronomy! They'll all be looking down, trying to find that elusive trace of life other than of Earth. .."

Again the implication that someone else has proposed this. You did it twice.

Do you get it now?

Again we know you are not proposing a Mars based NEO search so ther is no need to proclaim emphatically that you are not.

see ya
