legend of codes
Mars one has compiled a very respectable list of characteristics they feel are important for a Mars colonist to possess. It is my intention to address these, one at a time using my personal history, and current perceptions to illustrate how well I may or may not embrace these traits.
I am assigning these characteristics letters and color coding them so that anytime I feel I am sharing information relevant to that particular trait, I will be able to point it out.
Let's do this! (R7) <------nice, right?
NOTE: This page was created on February 1, 2014---the codes will appear as they are identified. There are not many as of this moment.
