The holistic evidence is beginning to point to the fact that 0G is not good
for humans (-0G, not Space as a whole). Some mammalian studies (ref: COSMOS 
Mission Results / Ames / 89-18) have shown a decrease in immune functions 
(vitality?), a curbing of fast muscle response (agility), and a reduced testes 
weighting (virility). Most of this does not seem insummountable - Use of 
hormones, exercise, etc.

The good news is that there seems some evidence of enlightment in humans. More 
than a few astronauts seem to have got quite spiritual (even religious) after 
spending time in space. However, I'm sure that has much more to do with their 
changed environmental perspective as a whole than 0G.
