There are those that would tell you it's the beating that would make him a man. Unfortunately, what they'd neglect to mention is he'd be a man with severe anger issues and authority complexes... Maybe get him to travel the world a little, go to college, have to look after himself a bit, and he'll mature just fine, without the need for beatings...

Are there any resources/studies on adhd/asd diagnosis in young girls? I have adhd, (40M), partner is asd at a minor amount; Our 6 yo daughter was diagnosed at 3 as being on the spectrum but everyone we speak to beyond the one meeting with paediatric socialist agree she’s got adhd traits not autism but I’ve heard diagnosis of adhd (and asd) in girls seems to be lagging behind cos symptoms are different in girls, and medical world has that wonderfully stupid way of only seeing things in males.

I'd be interested to know if you'll be doing a dress shirt (I love to go black-suit, black shirt, subdued tie. If I have to wear a suit, I'm wearing all-black.)

Enormous heat sink. Despite the very low pressure of the CO2 atmosphere, it is there...a big enough heatsink would allow the very cold ambient conditions to cool the reactor. Obviously you'd want to conserve resources, so a closed-cyme heat pump to take the heat immediately away from the reactor to a large heat reservoir, then to a radiator. Although ideally you'd want to recover as much as possible for usable work...if you're keeping people, plants etc. you're going to need heat to keep folks alive since it's a wee bit peaky on Mars...

Probably too late, but in your opinion do you think it would be possible for "difficult plants" such as cacao to grow?

Reason I ask is not Mars, but because we have a serious Cacao shortage that's only getting worse due to climate change, war, and other reasons because it will only grow in a narrow band...think we can grow chocolate in a tank?
