      From: nognog@adelphia.net              Astronauts have lost as much as 60% of muscle and bone mass by extended       stays in space even with exercise. So what would happen if you just let the       body totally adjust to space for several years? No doubt that you could       never return to gravity, but so what. Living in spaced for life is not so       bad. I just wonder what one would finally look like if allowed to totally       adapt naturally to space. There must be some point at which one would       stableize to another form. Perhaps like an octopus with no bones at all, it       would allow for brain growth again.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
