In a small way, the massive Ark, and her mission to bring an entire ocean to Vulcan made me think of, the planet stealing vacuum ship in Spaceballs. Maybe not quite the right analogy.

Looks as if Ivanovic is still a populist at heart. Too much of that can be dangerous. Hopefully he knows how to strike the right balance.

Author's Response:

I had forgotten all about the planet stealer! Space Balls hangs over space operas the way that Monty Python's Holy Grail cast its shadow over Lord of the Rings...

Only egomaniacs and martyrs go in for being president. Ivonovic is no martyr... It's amazing that any of them ever gets anything accomplished (not counting self aggrandizement and self destruction.)

Thanks!! rbs
