Okay, well what about dumping it on the moon? Let's face it: there's
not a lot of other suitable uses for this redundant body - other than
providing tidal flows on Earth, of course. I guess you'd get some
complaints from these idiots who've 'bought plots of land' on the
moon, but they're never going to get to build on it in their lifetimes
so WGAS?
