Okay. So now they're saying

Okay. So now they're saying Lance is not going to space. Apparently the Russians don't know a thing about this. Woops. It's a Dutch television company, MirCorp, that Lance's people have been negotiating with, and apparently they don't have a whole lot (if anything) to do with actually getting people into space. Hmmmm. Here's a snippit from the article on MTV.com: "They'll also have to get the approval of the Russian Space Agency, Rosaviakosmos, which told Reuters on Thursday (February 21) that there had been no talks on the subject yet. "It is as if I said I had bought Australia," Russian Space Agency spokesperson Sergei Gorbunov told Reuters. "MirCorp has no right to sell these flights. They have no link to Rosviakosmos, we have no contract linking us." Strange, ey? But who knows. MirCorp DID have something to do with getting that millionaire on the previous trip, so maybe it will all work out for Young Mr. Bass.
