@Duchess64 the reason the USA never went back to the moon, is because we were warned to stay away. There are, obviously, already communities of alien races living on the other side..
@ogb You have a much higher rating than me here for sure but you could just as easily be using an engine. There are a lot of ways to be smart. I suppose you wouldn't count music as worth much but that is my thing. My music teacher in college was Dave Brubeck's brother Howard Brubeck and I did take science courses, chem, astronomy, math, english AND music but music was my goal and I have achieved some minor successes in that field and still did and do a lot of high tech work also.
So what do you do for a living with your degrees?
Brubeck went to College of the Pacific and presently has the Brubeck Institute there. But that relationship will end this December. I presently live around the Stockton area, so I know a little about him.
