Nick Hoffman - "Funny, they didn't say that *before* they spent $410 million!"

True... But I think the mission is just as valuable if it proves all the widely held water theories are wrong. In fact, if they find no signs of water at either site, it will force them to rethink all of their orbital data. This shows the true value of lander missions.
