@doctorow also consider http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... a ship that permanently cycles between Earth and Mars. Just catch up & ride
@doctorow biggest problem is the weight of the fuel. Apollo was a fine balance. Burn to get there. Brake to orbit. Costs too much to go fast

I ♥ Sengakuji Station after 11PM. I can get a seat all the way home on a 1hr+ journey. Better still the train ends my station so I can Zzz.

Next year on this day I will set off a whole load of fireworks on the beach and bake potatoes there too. Just because.

"I was walking in the street with a guy and he stopped a pretty girl and asked her the time. He purposefully never wore a watch, in the days when watch wearing was common. Within a couple of minutes after chatting a while they were exchanging telephone numbers. I asked him about it and he said that there was a 5% change of a conversation leading to something if you talked with someone new. i.e. 95% chance of failure. I said, "Wow, how many girls do you ask a day?", He gave me a wink. "Oh, about 20". P.S. This would not work in a small town. :-)" - Stuart Woodward
