Tom, these problems are mostly solved by using verrrry tiny humans,
preferrably a paraplegic.  Much of the physiological problem has to do with
the body dumping calcium from the femurs at the onset of weightlessness,
second is atrophy of those big leg muscles, and the corresponding health
problems.  Both of these are solved if we start with a paraplegic,
preferrably a really small one.
