Ouch!  Those people are so shortsighted that you might send them up only
to have them come back with the same  opinions.  Imagine THAT  disaster:
Influential   person  X  is  talked  into  taking  a  trip  into  space,
complaining  all the while about WotTM (waste of the taxpayers'  money).
While  there,  he/she is  violently  ill the whole  time.  The day after
returning  he/she calls a press  conference  and makes a  Bible-thumping
speech about God vs.  NASA.  Then where are you?
