[FPSPACE] Astronaut Commandments

[Suzy]

The Commandments in "Missing Man" are only the ones for Ascans 
(reproduced below anyway...)

--------------------------------------
THE ASTRONAUT CANDIDATE'S TEN COMMANDMENTS
1. Thou shalt smile, but not grin.
2. Thou shalt keep thy humor harmless, pure and
perfect, without irony.
3. Thou shalt keep thy weaknesses to thyself; others
may thus fail to notice.
4. Thou shalt not complain; maketh survival look
easy.
5. Thou shalt make compliments after each flight,
class or simulation.
6. If thou canst not say something nice, thou shalt lie.
7. Thou shalt practice saying "Thanks for pointing
that out, sir! I'll really work on that!" all the days of
thy life.
8. Thou shalt be aggressively humble and dynamically inconspicuous.
9. That which is encouraged is mandatory; that which
is discouraged is forbidden.
10. When in doubt, say thou nothing.
