And I thought you were about a new space simulator á la Space Engine.

If we had had the funds we'd have beaten Sputnik into orbit. :O:

I'm not sure that 'third world' is really that accurate though - it has the fourth highest GDP per capita in Southeast Asia, after Singapore, Brunei, and Malaysia.
