Well, Rand, I have "space" in my closet. That is after all a term that means
what it means. Whether you misinfer some EXACT and ALWAYS APPLICABLE meaning
that suits your taste is your own problem, not mine. I note that Interglobal
Space Lines is not offering the weightlessness experience that is readily
available in space in my closet. (You climb onto the shelf then fall off and
experience approximately .5 seconds of weightlessness. Cost only $100:
liability waiver required.)
