You've been selected as one of the colonists for the new Colony on Mars. You have a few years to pack, so don't worry. But, just out of curiosity since you are no longer going to be around well everything, what are you going to pack?

Not for me, I pass the honor to start a new colony to someone younger.

You don't want to play along and say the only thing you are going to pack is a flute?

I suspect for the most part cell phones won't work on Mars yet. Maybe 7g will address that problem.
