"Musk just might pull it off, but I wouldn't be surprised if the schedule slipped.I used to do orbital mechanics, and it isn't easy. As to why go to Mars. Well, I am sure they were asking that about Columbus, too. It seemed to pay off in the long run. And why did the Russians put up Sputnik? We have comms satellites, GPS, weather satellites etc. Looks like that paid off too."

"As many have outlined, Hillsborough was the culmination of a decade of demonisation of football fans, where the hooligan image was thrown at anyone who supported a club and attended matches. What Hillsborough culminated in was a change of mind-set - that fans shouldn't be controlled and contained but looked after and made safe."
By TheLiquidator on Lessons from the Hillsborough disaster
