Ladies and Gentlemen, please consider the moon. Not as we know it, that dead planet of rocks and dust. But what it could become. A center of commerce and a place to live after we kill every plant on Earth.

Ah yes. I'd quite forgotten about the possibility-maybe inevitability-of a colony on the moon. Didn't Bush say that he wanted a colony on the moon by 2020? Of course, 2020 is long after his terms...so he's not too worried, I imagine, about investing.
It reminds me of the Biosphere experiments-which were, if I'm correct, testing to see if people could self-sustain in controlled environments (I think it was orginally for the possibility of a nuclear war. Although I'm not sure...).
But, without doubt, the moon is in our future. We can only overpopulate the world so much. We're pushing the envelope as it is-and with more billions of people, and less and less of natural resources, we've to expand...
It surprises me, now that I think about it, about how much is going to Mars, although the next step should be the moon, seeing as it's so much readily available.

Whoops.
And it's right there! We can see it almost every day. It's our twin planet.
Just thought of a great terrorist plot: blow up the Moon. We'd all die. Of course, the terrorists would die, too. But would that really stop them?
Make the moon a National Park. The last thing I want to see when I look in the night sky is Disney World on the moon.
