April 23, 2001: Mitch: Some guy is giving the Russians $20 million to take him into space. 20 ... million ... dollars!! What does he get for all that? Al: Complimentary "Tang," I hope!
April 25, 2001: Skip: There's a guy willing to pay the Russians $20 million to take him into space?! Will: That's right. Skip: Dude! I am way undercharging! Will: Well, Skip, I don't think there are many people willing to pay that much. Skip: At $20 million a pop, I wouldn't need "many" people. Will: Heck, even at half price you'd make a killing!
April 27, 2001: Will: So, 2001 marks the year of the first space tourist! Skip: Yep! I'm getting in on the ground floor, dude! And think of it! Since I'm the only game in town, soon I'll be setting prices, controlling merchandise, and deciding by my whim who succeeds or fails up here in orbit! Will: Sort of like a 21st-century railroad tycoon? Skip: Quiet, boy, or I'll put you to work in the mines!
