Given the current state of global markets this seems like as good a punt as any... maybe put this in Finance? You could put it into a SIPP or something.

Shocking to think that his own government won't pay the Russians to bring him home, they must have paid to send him out there

Shocking

I wish I had three millions to help

Although the article says he went to the space station in 1990, they then say he has been stranded for 14 years. Is this a bit of "!old" scamming?

He probably realised it will take a bit longer than the original 14 years to walk back.

And what's he been eating for 14 years? There can't be much furniture left...

Jesus. This thread attracts the right thickos on PH.

He's been living off Milky Ways, Mars Bars, Starbars... and Airos, obviously. And before you ask it, not Galaxies because he doesn't like the taste.

I don't like "Airos" - but I love "Aeros".

What was the name of that space station he's stuck on again?

Yeah but they sell Airos in space, for obvious reasons.

As I say, this thread...

[Eric Mc]

I would think that space contains no "Airos" of any sort. Maybe they might have "Vacuoes" though.

And someone has paid for supply ships to travel to him for the last 24 years.

ETA: I've left Kerbals stranded for longer, what's he complaining about?
