From PayPal to Planetary Travel 97

A user writes "PayPal founder Elon Musk muses about his plans to send rockets to space and his eventual hopes for making life 'multi-planetary.' 'I said I wanted to take a large fortune and make it a small one, so I started a rocket business,' Musk said. SpaceX is not new, but in a speech at Virginia Tech, Musk talked about the company's troubles and its lawsuit against Boeing and Lockheed as he tries to get a slice of the valuable Air Force contracts."

Does the Eject key work? It always pisses me off that there are no PC keyboards with an eject key, for some reason I find that very useful.

I am pleased that you "deleted" what appears to be a misuse of the word looser, which means "less tightly fitted." Context would indicate that a more appropriate word is loser. It's a good thing you corrected the error.

A man after my own heart.

I'm tempted to write him an email and suggest that he join the Cause. "Let me introduce you to Slashdot, a global leader in the growing field of English erosion."
