While we're at it, I've thought for a long time that we should stand the earth up straight on its axis and eliminate those pesky seasonal fluctuations in day length, temperature, etc.

Why not just arrest Dr. Van Allen ?

"...While we're at it, I've thought for a long time that we should stand the earth up straight on its axis and eliminate those pesky seasonal fluctuations in day length, temperature, etc..."

Bravo!

I wondered how long it would take for someone to suggest this!

Of course, we'd want to retain really sh!tty climates for people who are moslems. They don't deserve decent weather any more than they deserve attractive women or eyes that open all the way.

And while we're on the case, let's move Earth to a better neighborhood, away from all these asteroids and killer comets. We need an orbit with a posh out-of-the-elliptic-plane address that eliminates having to rub elbows with all the space-trash.

Sure, it'll be expensive, but we deserve it.

(And we can always just charge it and then follow up with a Chapter 13.)
