Or then you take things slow and you end up like NASA who has not launched any new rocket in years. Is that better?

I think there's a happy medium, and civilian tourism probably isn't really the place to be pushing the safety envelope.

Science, discovery, boldly going where no one has gone before? Absolutely safety is going to be somewhat compromised. Taking rich people to the gawk at the Titanic? I, personally, think you're a bit of dick for MacGyvering a vessel together and calling it good enough.
