Yes, Chris...I do realize that...do you realize that Virgin's foray into Space Tourism is nothing more than a scam to put Branson in the launch biz?...he needs the abilty to launch cheap telecom sats if he is to rule the www...this is bandwagon jumping, just like his eco efforts...Sir Richard's party ended when he almost killed himself, and Pelli Lindbergh...then bowed out of sailing PlayStation in a record TransAtlantic bid, because it's like controlling a Lemans car for 30- something hours...nonstop, and he knew he could no longer perform at that level...all his energy now goes into the www...mark these words...sad, but true...
