I'm really glad to see private enterprise establishing a foothold in the space travel industry. This enterprise could take off like a rocket.

Since every component isn't provided by the lowest bidder, it will probably become much safer.

Competition will step in, which will force everyone in the arena to be the best. I can see it happening. The ultimate climax to the romantic weekend.

Pop "the question" in outer space. Or say "I do" up there.

That's as far as I'm going with this theme.
