I thought Helen Keller posted on the hype for a second.

Hey, when galactus devours a planet, he's gotta go somewhere.

...so we're one step close to 'The Time Machine' reality of colonizing the moon. Which will then throw off the pull and send it crashing to earth.) Great.

Why would anyone want to live on the moon? The commute into the city is ridiculous.

Why do we still care about the Moon? Been there...it is too small for us to go to.

I'm excited. I mean...I really hope they release info on what's IN the water. That's what has me interested. Perhaps some of that water could have been from ancient comets even. There's no telling WHAT alien microscopic organisms they could find. Sadly, it seems like the news never covers these things. :/

Givien that a very small percentage of the Earth's water is drinkable. It would be a very good idea to go there and get that water. Would be hard as hell though

Our time and money would be much better spent on desalinization technologies and other water purification techniques. Water is pretty heavy and would present significant problems for any massive transport attempt.

Yeah, going to get water from the moon sounds like a waste of money

They also found lots of silver too. Soon we'll be mining the moon.

No, there'd be tidal waves 5000 ft high and women's menstrual cycles would explode

I just read that there will be 5000 ft high exploding menstrual cycles and I smiled.
Why did I smile?

But just think about how much you can charge for it? Moon Water! It'll be the next best thing since sliced dinosaur!
