Our Beautiful Mars, a Dead Planet?

It's upsetting to many of my patriotic subjects, but the truth must be faced: Life on Mars is a delicate thing, and if we do not take care of our planet, it could end up a dead world, as dead as Earth's Luna!

What if Earth Were Mired in Conflict?

The "news" today from Martin Berman-Gorvine's alternate-history early 21st century Earth is all about the American President's visit to Israel--they are two separate countries in this fictional world, along with about 189 other nations on Earth. In reality, of course, there are 240 members of the United States of Earth, which is the most prosperous and creative member of the Solar Federation.
As any Earth schoolchild can tell you, the Terran flag has 240 stars, one for each state, and 7 stripes, one for each continent.

Mars Needs Water Engineers!

When my good friends Rachel and Katie invited me to contribute to a bog, I must admit I was puzzled. Everyone knows Mars is desert and has hardly any wetlands!

That Ain't the Texas I Know!

Hi y'all, Katie here. Rachel asked me to comment on Martin Berman-Gorvine's latest contribution, but I'm so mad about it I could just spit! I always tell people, "Don't you dare mess with Texas!"

Making the Martian Desert Bloom

Hi everyone. Katie asked me to write this first post. "It'll be right up your alley, Rachel!" she said with a mischievous gleam in her eye. Yeah, and now I see what she was talking about--it reminds me of work! Thanks a lot, Katie!
