I totally agree with what Woz is saying. I do wish that there were tools more readibly available built into our browsers filter content, but I think that is just an opportunity for tools like NetNanny, etc. if Mozilla, Apple, Microsoft (except for Bing), Google (except for Google search), and Opera aren't doing it.

I wish we had the same freedom here in HN, but we don't, and I'm not sure why: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4385454


Why not just tell them they are going to Mars and then drop them off in New Mexico? They both look the same to me, and in spacesuits, maybe they won't notice the atmosphere is breathable.


Plus, everyone is used to TV shows in "space" with 1g, so weed out the people who would be suspicious about the lack of 1/3rd g. And when they get excited and point out that it's raining, say that it's an effect of global warming.

Even easier - use a large sound studio. Sort of a small-scale version of Truman.


Thanks. That's an especially poignant title for me considering that I just posted this, which will probably be dead/deleted by the time you click on it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4385454
