I saw someone yesterday said Mars One had finally given up the ghost - anyone care to look around and link confirmation?

Again, I never believed in this from the first I heard of it; much as I wish something like this would happen, the revenue stream projected -$6 billion- from the reality show was ludicrous, and I betcha that's short by about an order of magnitude on actual costs...

The foundation itself hasn't given up, but seems to have publically recognized the mission is on hold because their financial holding (Mars One Ventures)  became bankrupt due to a Swiss court ruling made in January this year.

Abort, Retry, Fail?' was the phrase some wormdog scrawled next to the door of the Edit Universe project room. And when the new dataspinners started working, fabricating their worlds on the huge organic comp systems, we'd remind them: if you see this message, always choose 'Retry.
