This morning I took the bus to work and the bus driver was on a roll talking about the latest events on Mars. When I boarded the bus, he told everybody that the Yanks knew how to get around on Mars with a golf cart and if we find the “Beagle 2” could we bring it home. He said it looks like a dustbin lid that has Leicester stamped on it. Leicester is the home of the British National Space Centere. Everybody on the bus had a good laugh. Actually I feel sorry for the Brits, because a lot of national pride was riding on the Beagle 2 probe. One guy quipped it just like the British car industry.
