Alright, saw this on AOTS and confirmed it on the web and i want to see what y'all had to say about this.
as quoted from the escapist:
"A woman that says she's taking advantage of international law has staked a claim on the sun."
apparently she claimed the sun, says it's hers and Duran says: "There was no snag, I backed my claim legally, I am not stupid, I know the law. I did it but anyone else could have done it, it simply occurred to me first." She plans on charging a fee to anyone that "uses the Sun," giving half to Spain, 20% to Spain's pension fund, 10% to research, 10% towards ending world hunger, and she's keeping the remainder for herself.
WTF!!!
