okay, since we're on such great terms with the Soviets, (ie berlin wall,
glasnot, etc ) and theyve got this great station that they keep up guys
forever, and we've got a great way to 'shuttle' up supplies, well....
  The last apollo/soyuz shebang worked pretty well, why don't we just
get together with them on this. I mean we could bring up a decent load
of O2, food and water, plus a person or two.  Maybe some modular capsule-
like pieces.  Theyve got it going, why don't we just put our heads together
on it.....we could even haul up their stuff for a nominal amount of $$$
to save nasa a bit of money, too....the possibilities really stretch..
