No, I don't think this is right either. Loser is right when he says there will be some reaction to people walking around the inside of the station. As they exert force against the deck plates to go in one direction the station will have an equal reaction in the opposite direction. I just think he's way over estimating the amount the reaction will affect the station. The difference in mass between the person and the station means that almost all the energy moves the person and almost none of it moves the station. So while there will be a force applied to the station it would be imperceptable I believe.
