yes its a long time that he posted but i wanna get my 2 pence worth.

yes us english do call things whatever we want, please do not forget that we have buildings older than the united states and that you came from here to start with ! you invented nothing ! (no offence to the educated americans out there)

its a shame that incompitent idiots like this are born ! remember the next time you type about english peter that you are too typing in english ! not american , so have some respect next time.

as for virgin galactica its a fantastic idea. shame about the price tag

And for heavens sake, it’s an elevator, not a LIFT! A lift is what you get after too many drinks at a bar. USA invented it, we named it!

90 second space flight? Not really. The flight is 1.5 hours… although during Mike Melvill’s first space flight he was technically only above 62 miles for 1 second! :-)

I believe it may be an even more popular show there than here in the US. It wouldn’t surprise me that this is a common mistake for reporters to make, I’ve made it myself a few times.
