  1. But wouldn't it be harder to drink out of here on sea level?

  2. I wonder how hard it is to wash that cup in space?

  3. Yeah, yeah, the cups are roolly cool, and I'm roolly glad that astronauts won't have caffeine withdrawal when they go into space, but now what I want more than anything else is a drinking bulb!

  4. Steve Harkonnen: On sea level it would pretty much suck ;-) I'd just as soon stick to a regular cup.

    Ananda girl: Good point. It's hard to wash anything in space much less a convoluted cup.

    Woman: I have several astronaut pens but, unlike the cup, they work on Earth as well.

    Caz: I've been wanting one of those since I read "Ringworld".

  6. It acts as a wick and draws liquid up to your lips. That sounds weird, but it's a cool idea.
