Beyond the manuevers you mentioned, think of the space inside the asteroid that can be used to house people and facilities. Check out 2312 by Kim Stanley Robinson. In that novel, asteroids are turned into solar system cruising space ships.

I'm thinking parody...

Can anyone recommend good web hosts/registrars? XXX availabitlity isn't necessary, but I'm looking to start a personal page and know slashdot is a great reference for this type of info.

I idled in the chat box for a while, the paypal emails said it was all good to go, but like i just posted below, I used another vendor and it's all good. $2 more than I wanted to spend but I can't complain. I'm doing my best to bring the amount linux folk spent on the bundle to the windows level.

ah like the above post, I ended up just making a third $1 payment through another vendor

I've made two payments(2@$1 ea) but I haven't received a download link yet, just paypal confirmation/receipt. Has anyone else had trouble?

That sounds like a good thing!

It can be very difficult to be able to parse out what is sarcasm through written text, especially when so many people are unfamiliar with one another. I read that the tilde is used to denote snark in a slashdot users sig and have just rolled with it sense.
