Apparently BWhite had moderator/admin powers at the time, because BWhite edited the post by pumice.

I deduce the original post was modified to remove spam content.

The email provider is hotmail, so even after 20 years, if the email account is still monitored, an email might reach PsychicCrab

However, I must admit I'm a bit skeptical of the user name chosen by this individual

Let's see what we have ...

Meta New Mars » Should NASA credit Richard C. Hoagland? - Sign our petition!

I remember those heady times .... a shape captured by a Mars satellite caused Mr. Hoagland to imagine an artifact, and quite a few folks at the time thought the image was worth a closer look.

PsychicCrab started a topic, and three members at the time responded with critical assessment of the Hoagland excitement.

I've decided to post a reply by TioRay, which captures the sentiment ....

TioRay wrote:

Sorry.....Its obvious to most people that Hoaglands work is no more than his best guess and unfortunatly has the accuracy to match. I think anyone of us could produce work to his same standard just by renting some old original series Star Treks combined with a coin for flipping, except none of us crave attention from crackpots like you PsychicCrab.

Pass.

Today's candidate is PS122 Member 2992 from 2008 (Second Wave)

This turns out to be the name/web address of a (reasonably) famous school in New York...

I asked Google for information, and got back an astonishing amount of snippets about Performance Space at ps122.org

The email username implies the person might have been associated with the school in some way.

Well, it seems assured that the email provider still works. The list of citations for PS122 is ** far ** out of the ordinary.

Let's see what this adventurous person chose as a topic ...

: Martian Chronicles » Don't miss "Untitled Mars (this title may change)"

Of course! An announcement of a performance of a play about Mars ....

THEATER: "Untitled Mars(this title may change)"by Jay Scheib

DATE: April 8 - 27 2008
TIME: Tuesday - Friday at 8pm
Saturday at 4 pm and 8pm
Sunday at 6pm
LOCATION: PS122, 150 First Ave at 9th street, East Village, NYC
SPECIAL OFFER: $12 tickets* (Reg $20)
HOW TO ORDER:go to ps122 .org or call 212.352.3101 and enter/mention code LIFE or bring a printout of this email to the box office at PS122 (at 150 First Ave)
Taking a cue from the space industry, Jay Scheib’s latest work pits hard Science against Philip K. Dick as interplanetary speculation runs amok, the indigenous population gets screwed, and a strange "anomalous" kid seems to hold all the answers. Developed at MIT with a team of Mars researchers and anthropologists, a mission to colonize the Red Planet is revving up for 2017. Imagining what might happen once we get there, Scheib drops seven performers into a simulated Martian society. Can’t make ends meet on Earth? Consider a one-way ticket to Mars!
*offer subject to availability and may be revoked at any time - so order in advance! Additional blackout dates may apply. Not valid for previously purchased tickets or in combination with any other offer. All sales final; no refunds or exchanges. phone and web orders are subject to service fees.
For more info please visit our website:ps122

OK .... this is definitely going to be a long shot, but I'll send the email to ps122.org.

Someone there will (no doubt) find SpaceNut's message perplexing, but the email contains contact information, and since this appears to be an adventurous group of folks who've been enlivening the arts scene in New York for decades, they might at least ** look ** at NewMars ...

I must say, the playwrite seems to catch the spirit of the Mars venture, without being encumbered by bog-down details.

Today's candidate is: Politics

I am not enthused.

The email provider did not respond to a ping.

However, whois on Bing delivered a surprise .... Michael Caltabiano is listed in Wikipedia as a Liberal Party member of the Brisbane City Council, and a member of the Legislative Assembly of Queensland. The Wikipedia entry goes on at some length.

In any case, the web site is long gone, so there will be no email today.

Let's see what the supporter/staffer chose as a topic...

The member number is 1663 - Year was 2006

Topic: Not So Free Chat » Politics Rules Ok!

Tom Kalbus offered a reply.

No email today.

In case anyone reads this, best Wishes to everyone for a Safe, Healthy and Productive New Year on Earth.

We already have the New Year on Mars under way. Best wishes for all lander teams for success, new discoveries and long lives on Mars.

This all happened ten years ago ... Louis was the first person to respond to the post

PLM wrote:

http://www.amazon.com/Humans-on-Mars-eb … B007H7C926
In the event where the “virtual humans” and real “humans” co-exist on Mars, there may be conflicts between the two entities. It is easy for us to imagine that the humans will always win over the pseudo-human anthropomorphic beings. But, we must also remind ourselves that the virtual humans will be designed by other humans, with their own, personal ambitions. Can they not program those ambitions into their own images? Would that not create a competition, and even warfare between the humans and the pseudo-humans? Does that mean that there will be a different set of laws for the robots or computers performing tasks previously only in the domain of humans? Or, will there be treaties and requirements not to program any ambitions into the “machines?” Is it now—or will it ever be—possible to stop the progress of technology?
Technology will always progress. But, all possible governance models have already been tried on earth. Most of those models have failed. So, more humanistic models had to be tried as a last resort; after all, governance must be maintained in order to have polities. Was the switch always voluntary on the part of the human populations? Certainly not; the process was often bloody, with both the members of the administrative organs and members of the population losing members to the grim reaper. Was the switch done because the earlier governance model was not humanistic enough? If the population is unhappy, sooner-or-later, they will move on the cause of their unhappiness.

The link to the book is still active on Amazon, and there is more information about the book and about the author, who is from England.

After all these years, there are ** still ** no reviews!

However, the Look Inside feature is active ...

The look inside shows (me at least) that the author would have fit right into the NewMars forum at the time.

PLM may have thought so as well.

However, after dropping off the book notice, PLM disappeared.

I'll send the email, but am not expecting much to happen. This was 10 years ago, and the interest appears to have been passing.

I was looking around for the new user intro thread/forum, without success. This either means I'm in the right place to say hello in Free Chat or completely blind. I must say this is a fascinating forum and I'm surprised I haven't come across it sooner. But before I post anything, I thought I ought to introduce myself.
My homebase board is over at The Big Red Board (http://www.bigredboard.com), which is a forum about Nebraska football. Otherwise, I shop around a bit for space and Mars related sites and I suppose I've been looking for a home. At any rate, delighted to be here. And if I'm missing that new user intro thread, please feel free to slam me unremittingly.

This new member was warmly welcomed by Rxke (from Belgium) and by Josh Cryer (admin at the time).
That was the end of it!

I'll send one of SpaceNut's emails, but am not expecting much. Perhaps there were too many other interests going on, and demands on time.

After 17 years, there might be renewed interest in Mars Settlement.

It appears that interest in football at Nebraska went away as well.

Per Google, the next launch window is 2024...

The next missions expected to arrive at Mars are: The ExoMars program of ESA has delayed the launch of the Rosalind Franklin rover, until later in the 2020s. Mars Orbiter Mission 2 by India, planned launch in 2024.
Exploration of Mars - Wikipedia

The IP address recorded by FluxBB for this candidate does not respond to ping. That is not in itself conclusive.

Charming! Whois reports that the IP address captured by FluxBB is associated with "a mail server and dictionary attacker"

The Project Honey Pot site contains details indicating the site has been observed for over 14 years .... I'll bet it is silent these days.

Well, let's see if there is anything recorded for this "candidate" in the FluxBB database ...

Water on Mars » hidden-glaciers-mars

The post itself is obviously spam to test the ability to write to the database.

Both SpaceNut and Void sent nice message in reply.

Void took off with the impulse provided by the spam. Mars_B4_Moon brought the topic back in 2021 and 2022.

The topic itself stopped at #12, but I think it has plenty of potential as discoveries are made on Mars.

For the candidate? Pass!

Topic: Planetary transportation » Revolutionary way to explore other worlds - A wind riding rover

This is a surprise .... photon created a new account from neutrino, so technically is not a single post candidate.

neutrino had 13 posts: neutrino is Member 351 (also First Wave and surely acquainted with RobertDyck (#274))

I'm back; I morphed into a photon from a neutrino. I couldn't remember my password and I changed my internet provider so I had to assume another name.
We have done some tests on this proposal and presented it at the last Mars Society conference. A paper was presented to them soon after the conference. A proposal is in the works to apply for funding from NASA.
This is the web site where you can find it at [http://www.arrow-space-innovations.com]Arrow Space Innovations I posted a copy of the paper that is up for publication on that web site.
The Windsurfer will work on Mars by taking advantage of the wind currents above the surface because of a natural effect of the way the wind moves above the ground. The Martian boundary layer, 200 meters to 500 meters above the surface is where the wind speed is much greater than it is on the ground. This elevation is where the Windsurfer, balloon and dragchute would extract the most energy out of the wind. By just doubling the velocity of the wind we can extract 8 times more energy out of it, this is enough energy to pull the Windsurfing rover.
There are several different types of balloons this could be used with, zero pressure balloon, ULD balloon or a solar heated balloon. They all three have different requirements and durations.
Using the data we extracted out of the Viking and Pathfinder landers we have shown that this balloon dragchute rover design would move freely over Mars at those locations over 10 percent of the time. By doing this it could theoretically travel over 500 miles in a three week period at an average speed of 10 MPH for an average time of 2.4 hours per day.

This post was in the middle of an ongoing topic (#30). It was followed immediately by a welcome back by Rxke, but then the topic died.

I'll send SpaceNut's email, in hopes this member will still be around, but it ** is ** 19+ years later, so I'm not expecting a reply.

In the mean time, if someone is curious about the "windsurfer" probe idea, the web site link may still work. After all these years, it may not.

I did read a bit of the topic, which (for the most part) seemed sensible.

One person thought the Moon Denier was trying to make a joke. I don't! I think the person was completely sincere.

Josh Cryer did offer the poster a link to a site that was setup to debunk Moon hoaxers, but my guess is that such a person is too far gone to be salvaged.

Today's candidate is pheasantenergy

The email provider is a company with the same name (.com)

Chances this company still exists are slim...

Ping gave a surprise! There is a server at that domain address!

The IP address of the server should be informative.

Whois found wp9.bluehost.com at the IP address

Appears to be located in Provo, United States (I assume that is Provo, Utah)

The IP address is reported to be owned by something called Unified Layer

A web site called ipinfo.io shows Provo, Utah, United States

Well! I wonder if the web site shows up ...

https://www.pheasantenergy.com is most definitely still there! It reports being a Fort Worth based upstream oil and gas company.

Our primary focus is in the mineral, royalty, and working interest subset of the industry.

OK ... so now I presume this was spam ... let's find out ...

Interesting ... the log on itself came from Pakistan .... so why would someone in Pakistan be using an IP of a Fort Worth company?

Today's candidate is: Peter

The username looks reasonable, but the email provider looks iffy ...

Ping reveals that the domain name existed at one time, and an IP address was assigned.

However, there was no response from a server (that is not evidence because response to ping can be turned off)

The IP address of the server is reported by whois: Austria

The username matches a location of Austria ... so far, so good

.at is confirmed to be the country code for Austria

There is a company "AON" but I doubt it is related to this domain name.

My conclusion is that sending an email to aon.at is unlikely to be productive.

Whois was unable to find a server by that name.

I am currently casting around for a masters to do next year in the area of environmental science or ecological engineering. My BSc was in Ecology, and it included some environmental chemistry, soil sciences and microbiology, amongst other things. Suppose that a permanent Mars colony was just a few years away and I wanted to study something that would get me on track to be part of the crew as a terraformer or closed ecological system engineer. What should I study, and where? Obviously, career choices based on the above assumption should be viewed with extreme scepticism (and then some!), but I would nonetheless be interested in any suggestions people may have.

I have set up a Linux / PostgreSQL / Apache / PHP machine and want to move the data, forms, and eventually the whole web site to a dedicated machine.

Yesterday's discovery of a gent who was in the first curl of the First Wave, and who (apparently) was serving as an early web master for the Mars Society has given me much needed energy to approach the opportunity/challenge/risk of today's encounter ....

Today's member/candidate is someone with a sense of humor ... the username chosen is "password" (member #448 )

The email matches, and the provider is yahoo, so it will be possible to send to this address.

However, let's see what we have to work with ...

Maybe if America was a bit kinder to Canada there wouldn't be that flag burning.
Someone has to have a sense of humour, posting that after this entire thread...

This was post 45 of an ongoing topic that seemed to get heated without providing much value.

I'm not inspired to send an invitation.

Pass.

For SpaceNut re Email Outreach campaign ...

Today's candidate is: pamelamartin

The user name does not match the email - in fact, it is sufficiently different I expect we'll find this is spam...

We have an IP address to work with ... Kyiv, Kyiv City, Ukraine <<== charming

OK... let's see what our visitor from Ukraine chose as a topic ...

Life support systems » Crewman size and mass affects mission to mars

This visitor made an effort to blend in ...

I can agree with you but I think that in our world we could find couple of people who will prefer to emulate Mark Watney

The post is #11 in an ongoing topic ... in fact, Oldfart1939 replied to the post by our Ukrainian friend.

The topic itself whithered until 2019, when SpaceNut brought it back with #18 in 2019

In any case, there is no way I'm going to send SpaceNut's email to a Ukrainian who used someone else's name and a hacked email account.

I found the answer .... the payload is a slot machine offer in the Signature

SpaceNut ... I recommend this account for converstion to TestID. The next available TestID is 18376

OK! We have a live server in Australia, and the username and email address look reasonable ... let's see what paisley2 chose as a topic

Topic: Re: Human missions » VSE/CEV lunar lander propulsion - discussion »

Hey all,
Wondering if people have any thoughts about the lunar lander/ascender module on whatever new stack is selected. I've seen very little specific mention of possible module design and mission profiles thus far (if I've missed something some directions would be appreciated). More specifically, if the module is required to stay on the lunar surface for some time, it will have to have considerable internal volume (inflatable?). Does all the habitable volume stay on the surface, or does it return to lunar or earth orbit? What about engine choice, staging (Apollo or LK style?) etc etc? Obviously you REALLY want those engines to work - are we talking about a revival of Apollo era hypergolics here? What other options are there?

This post started a topic, and there was one reply from SpaceNut, pointing to another topic.

This gent will receive SpaceNut's email. 17+ years have gone by, so the email account may have gone dark long ago.

Never-the-less, on the slight chance of success, I'd be interested in this gent's comments about developments and upcoming flights.

Sending.
