The problem i imagine is the worry of security aboard the international space station more than anything else.

You said it exactly right, Padders. Americans didn't care specifically because it seemed that good 'ole capitalism was at work: the guy bought himself onto a great ride to the stars, and any one of us who had the money would do the same thing.

I understand the security issue; even so, more power to him! :star:
