That sounds great. I'm a Physics major, and I don't really know anybody who thinks that the Mars plan is entirely feasible. Especially the part about using the Moon as a filling station. In principle, I'm entirely for expanding technology by pushing beyond the realm of what we currently know. It's just that this particular idea is pretty bad. The problems involved with prolonged space flight and their solutions provide quite alot of useful spin-offs, but it's also important that we find a comparatively inexpensive way of doing it, and, let's face it, establishing a moon base ain't it.
