They say they really like Starliner, and I think they mean it. After all, it's not that bad! If you offered me a free trip to space in it, I'd jump at the chance.

In fact I'd offer to pay at least 1/3 of my net worth. (Sadly this doesn't quite equate to the current cost-per-astronaut of, what, $150m?)
