Not to mention that we have no idea how much gravity is really needed to eliminate the medical problems of microgravity. This is impossible to test on Earth but could be tested on animals in quite a small artificial-gravity module.

I can't remember the details, but I believe there is a forthcoming US aeromedical mission which should address these issues, with a small mammal payload and a centrifuge aboard a recoverable spacecraft.

Hey, guys, c'mon -- I may have been charitably described as "bright," on occasion, but...!

Actually, the knee is coming along OK. I'm more having to manage the effects of the pain meds, which is a bit of a juggling act. Especially since I go back to work in the morning. But, overall, things are proceeding apace...
