This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I don't recall who it was who said:

"The Earth is the cradle of humanity. But everyone must leave the cradle someday".

But I seem to recall that Heinlein put it less romantically:

"The dinosaurs had no space program"

R.A. Heinlein knew his shit. I'm happy if NASA and any other space agency resumes operations. We should be more advanced on that field that we are these days.
My name is Ramón Nogueras. Running now Vampire: the Masquerade (Giovanni Chronicles IV for just 3 players), and itching to resume my Call of Cthulhu campaign (The Sense of the Sleight-of-Hand Man).

Exactly. I was born in the year Man first landed on the Moon. I'll be 39 in two weeks. I'm supposed to have space stations (real ones) and Moon-bases and Mars missions with habitats and the whole nine yards - NOW. Well, actually, 20 years ago. I grew up expecting it to happen Any Day Now.

I want my future back.

I feel reasonably sure that it wasn't the space program Mr. Funk was referring to.

I can pick just about anything.  After a while, it's like listening to amateur hackers complain about why Microsoft can't get it's act together.  Gee, do you think they never thought of that and aren't trying to?

When you grow up, you get criticism from time to time. It's just part of being an adult. Stop crying, it isn't manly.

And when you grow up, your criticism actually gets taken seriously.  Stop whining.  It's not manly, either.

Not all that badly, in my opinion.  I don't have any personal complaints.
