So Russia has Diamonds in an Impact Crater - Trillions of Carats. That is sufficient funds to put a 10 million population colony on the moon over the next century.

Would you live there?

Live in a crater in Russia? I'd better be paid in the hundred of thousands of dollars a year for that.
Flag homicidal_squirrel October 8, 2012 6:00 AM PDT
Yeah, no one wants to live in Russia. Even Russian don't want to live in Russia. Why would anyone want to live in a crator in Russia? That makes no sense.

I'd live in that Russian crater, as long as I was allowed to help myself to whatever rocks I wanted for my "collection".

No, you can only live there after all the diamonds have been mined out, and all the Russians are in space. You are also only take one blanket, one shoe, 2 hats, and an old toothbrush used to clean the latrines used by new recruits in boot camp... Russian boot camp.

In that case I think I'll pass on the offer.

It's too late. Your name has been added to the list. Once you're on the list, you no longer have a choice.

Flag jetshield October 8, 2012 6:54 AM PDT
There is always a choice. We might not always like any of the options, but the choice is there. Unless you're dead, but at that point it doesn't really matter.

Aren't diamonds actually plentiful and their price artificially driven high? And people responsible for this to be arrested on sight in the States?

You can't live there for long. Muscles atrophication, bone decalcification. You can only work there in shifts, like employees on cruise boats.

Russia sucks enough. Why would you want to live with a bunch of Russians on the moon? Doesn't that just defeat the purpose of leaving the Russian crator for the moon?

Umm ... you said the thread had been trolled, no?  Now just how could that happen if people weren't  - according to you - trolling?  And if people - according to you - were trolling, wouldn't they have to be trolls?  So yes, yes you did call multiple people trolls.  It's blatantly obvious.  Which may be, you know, the reason I pointed it out.

Diamonds are actually pretty common. The prices are kept artificially high by holding most off the market. If Russia were to try using these to finance a moonbase, diamonds would very quickly be devalued, and the venture would thus fail.
