Ok.  I was checking out an interview with Minister Faust.  Faust, wrote one of the most original pieces of science fiction that I’d read in the past few years in The Coyote Kings of the Space-Age Bachelor Pad, and given that he’s got a new book coming out I wanted to see what he was up to.  As an aside we really need more folks like Faust in the game.But anyway that’s a tangent.Did you know that somebody owns the moon?  AND the other eight planets?So…turns out that when countries began moon exploration, the UN passed a law preventing governments from owning celestial bodies.  But that law didn’t cover individuals or corporations.  About 26 years ago….someone took advantage of this loophole.  And the result is The Lunar Embassy.  This is not a joke.Can you imagine what type of lunacy was required to actually conceive of and follow through on this idea?
