I mean, what if you are one of those "no sweat" astronauts?

I'm sorry Mr. Grissom, you both have the same qualifications and credentials, but he's way sweateier than you.

if sweatiness were a prerequisite for being an astronaut, i would already be on my way to mars, even though naomi_traveller, the sweatless wonder, has two master's degrees... in SCIENCE!

then again, some would say i'm already on mars.
