RETIRED FARMER: VISITING VENUS WILL BRING WORLD PEACE
KITCHENER, Ontario (Wireless Flash) The problems in the Middle East could be solved just by colonizing Venus, according to an 82-year-old man from Kitchener, Ontario. Retired farmer Ernie Anderson claims a space expedition to Venus would be the best way to end the bickering over land between Palestinians and Israelis because thered be more than enough land to share up there. Anderson isnt an engineer but he reckons that a mile-long balloon filled with helium could be the cheapest way to transport large groups of people to Venus. Once we get there, Anderson claims stabbing 100-foot rods of radioactive waste into the Venusian soil would trigger volcanic eruptions needed to create air and water. Anderson admits his Voyage To Venus would be a bigger project than Noahs Ark but he figures it would be a good way to keep kids off drugs.
