Excellent article. One interesting part is Stuart and Anders' estimate of the time required to disassemble Mercury. 31 years, starting from scratch. Note that the disassembly proceeds exponentially, so that most of the action occurs between years 30 and 31, (this would cause some logistical problems. of course).
