Hello Mike - 

CA>> I would prefer that NASA discontinue launchings of the
CA>> shuttles but I have a feeling they will continue until
CA>> there is another horrific outcome. :-( 

MR> What, losing 2 shuttles isn't horrific enough already?! 

Yes it is enough for me. I felt heartsick at each new report of
troubles/errors and am amazed that the astronauts are home
safe. I really didn't think they would make it. 

MR> Heck, they don't allow a new airplane design to fly
MR> passengers until it has been certified by a test pilot. So
MR> why are they sending 7 up after a redesign. The shuttle can
MR> be flown remotely, don't you know?! 

No, I never really thought about that factor. 

WC>> I think it's time to consult Burt Ruttan. 

MR> Isn't that Kurt not Burt? 

No, it's Burt.
