I have to qualify the title slightly. The most important day is obviously when we crawled out of the slime pond and shook our tiny fists to the sky proclaiming “I am human”. But we’ll never know what day that was. This story was written more for fun than for facts, so please feel free to make corrections in the comments. Let’s file this one under Engineering Avant Garde. Now, on to my story.
I already raised a glass to celebrate. But then again, I do that every night so maybe it doesn't count. Anyway...anyway...back to the future...I actually recall you noting the event of the ISS AT THE TIME and saying how this was the day that begins a continuous human presence in space! Yes, I do remember that. (Along with things you probably DON'T want to remember - like your hair..but I digress...) For your information, there ARE other people that celebrate - ar at least recognize - this day. A FB / dive friend posted something on his page about 31 Oct - exactly the phrase you said - and at first I thought he was mad - then I parsed the statement more carefully and realized what was going on! So there ARE other people on this! As far as terraforming Mars .. NFW.

Should I cry ? Or should I cry ?
If you cry, I hope you're laughing.
