Water on moon? So what?

An article on Nov. 14 tells how excited we Utahns are to find there is a puddle of water on the moon. Here is one Utahn who couldn't care less. My family and I will never get to drink it or water our garden with it. And the millions of dollars it cost to find this out could have been put to much better use, like feeding the poor.

How much more can we spend to see if there is water on Mars?
