I'm going to make extra sure to use lots of punctuation in all communications with young people from now on.

Apparently to drill the hole in space would have required several hours of work in the Russian section of the station to remove layers of things over the surface where the hole was. This, of course, would have been noticed if it was actually a thing that happened.

What most likely did happen was the hole was drilled accidentally in manufacture, not found until not much time before launch, then they patched the hole with epoxy or whatnot and hoped no one would notice. Russia does NOT want the embarrassment that would occur if they got blamed, so they're pushing the big lie that it was done in space as sabotage.

Take one lump sum frome one ticket. Buy a house and car and live off the other ticket 50k a year.

It’s lump sum + $25k a year. $50k a year is if he does them both as lifetime payments. Neither would be super life changing but it sure would be nice.
