Plus, once we have moon base workers on a regular payroll with an ATM and a McSpacelys, we will finally be literally 'spending money in space'.

Maybe, but I'm sure the package maintainer at yahoo! definitely had an 'oh shit!' moment.
that why the USA needs to race back to the moon and build a fort around it maned by space marines.
Indeed - the moon would be useful for more capitalist uses, like advertising. Some widespread areas of pigmentation and it'd make a swell Pepsi logo.
Meanwhile, here are some of the approximately 6,999,999 losers.
Or just take a bunch of photos yourself and upload them to Autodesk's 123d catch and get a 3d model back. It'll stitch together a scene and make a mesh (or a mess, depending on your photo quality) of it.
There should at least be a sad video of someone walking down an empty, echoing corridor, under a sign that says 'Heathkit - Since 1926', turn and look back, sigh, flick off a light switch and close the door with a boom.
Someday we hope to see mechwarrier style contests for real.

Total coincidence, but I saw this ancient B&W episode of Robin Hood yesterday where he did hack a carrier pigeon. The sheriff was going to use pigeons to carry some pearls to his place, but Robin switch birds with Maid Marion's and took them elsewhere!

That's because it's not intolerance or non- that's the issue but of what. People do that all the time, give values to things like 'hate' or 'addiction' - some things SHOULD be hated, and I'm well addicted to oxygen and dihydrogen-monoxide. It's not 'addiction' that's good or bad, it's whether it harms your health or not. Some folks think it's good for schools to have zero tolerance of drugs and guns (but not money!), but a high tolerance of diverse mix of races and backgrounds. So that's not a paradox at all.
