A Sufi parable on the FAA:
>One day, a neighbour asked to borrow a clothesline and Nasruddin went to check with his wife.
>He returned to say: “Sorry, but we’re using it to dry flour.”
>“How can you dry flour on a clothes-line?” asked the neighbour.
>Nasruddin replied, “It’s easier than you think when you don’t want to lend it.”

/sfg/ wants a scientifically accurate, poz free show but refuses to watch Star Cops. Curious...
>Star Cops is set in the year 2027—some 40 years into the future at time of broadcast—a time in which space travel has become common and mankind is in the process of exploiting and colonising the Solar System. There are five permanently occupied space stations orbiting the Earth and there are bases on the Moon and Mars. Approximately 3,000 people are living and working in space.[3] This near future setting was influenced by the potential for greater access to space promised by the burgeoning Space Shuttle programme and by the militarisation of space through the US Government's Strategic Defense Initiative programme (also known as "Star Wars") both of which were underway in the early 1980s.[4] Accordingly, space travel and life in space is portrayed in a realistic manner with depictions of weightlessness and low gravity environments and lengthy space journeys (months or years in cases of interplanetary travel)[3] as well as hazards such as spacesuit failures,[5] radiation exposure[6] and explosive decompression
