	<htmltext>Perhaps we need a satellite spacebot that goes around collecting trash.  After all, what environment does not benefit from a little light housekeeping?  It's the green thing to do!  This idea sounds like a great opportunity for a bit of  private enterprise.  Instead of "Pigs in Space" it would be "Goats in Space".  After enough junk is collected, it could be auctioned off to collectors, brought down to a landfill, crashed into the ocean or rained down on Osama.
And what are the rules of salvage in space anyway?</htmltext>
