Hi, I'm new to this particular mail group... I'm an Financial IT
Administrator, operating as Technophile Consulting Inc. I Direct a
sideline society organized, called Canadian Scientific Paranormal
Investigations, who is a group that volunteers to scientifically
investigate any claims of anomalous phenomena, and explain it rationally,
with evidence.

I would definitely go to Mars. At the pace the space organisations are
going at, there will probably be a commercial shuttle/cruiser link to Mars,
before a government sanctioned one.
We have sub-orbital commercial shuttle flights and a Japanese development
contract for a resort on the moon. It's not long before a cruiser-size
vessel is used to ferry people there and back- there's a demand for
passengers with the financial means to travel into near space, a business
opportunity that's on the ground-floor now. In 10 years, the space race
will be making more instant millionaires than the internet, today. (To
quote another email which came in through extropians.)
We have the technology and the money, Mars is well within reach as long as
we have the courage.
