Except it is more of a science compound, and brain capital can be transferred comparatively easy, as opposed to productional capacities (hi-tech research installations aside). But yeah, that is a drastic and, unfortunately, possibly ineffective method. Maybe worth as a backup plan.

[Toaster]

I get the feeling there is rather more civilian population there than is feasible to move.  Just look at M16; it's in a big city.

[Devastator]

I'm sure there are ways to 'move' the colonists that would be easier.

[Nikitian]

Yup. And then, all in all, I think Antoine de Saint-Exupéry summed it up pretty well in Little Prince.

Men occupy a very small place upon the Earth. If the two billion inhabitants who people its surface were all to stand upright and somewhat crowded together, as they do for some big public assembly, they could easily be put into one public square twenty miles long and twenty miles wide. All humanity could be piled up on a small Pacific islet.

(Sure, maybe he is exaggerating a bit, but that does convey the idea.)
Food, comfort and other needs aside, of course.

Pssh, just move the valuable ones then grind up the rest for use as cheap protein source for feeding our sods.

Or Xan.

[kisame12794]

No, do not feed the Xan. It doesn't need any help....

[Xantalos]

Well yeah, look at how easily I gathered everyone around me!

[kj1225]

Lesser of two evils. If someone is going to be permadeathed it will probably be the one messing with nature's plan.

[Xantalos]

...you?
Even if I die I have another clone back on Hephaestus, the only thing that'll be lost is some character development I'd rather not lose.

[kj1225]

I did not realize that batures plan lacked penises. But that does have a good point. Just look at Romans and the Greeks.

Assuming they wake you up again this time, that is. Meaning that if you die again, you are helplessly at the mercy of Simus.

[Xantalos]

Eh, last time I died I waited something like 80 days to wake up, didn't I? That wasn't so bad, I could go through it again.
Of course if I did die it'd mean I'd have to repeat the vague as hell infohunt thing I was doing when Wilbur decided to edit himself into Revelations.

That means Charlotte isn't far behind. Might be good to stay out of the vents.

Thanks knight_otaku. From what I've read, Sambo still has everything. Legs, arms, the whole bit. Cheers

Now we just have to work out a lonely hut and a dick-cooling hole and we're set.
