Until today, I thought trolling/crapflooding was the most pathetic form of internet nerdery. Today I have learned that failing at it is the true low point. I hope that the mysterious inner circle of reject friends gives you a lifetime ban from their secret club for being such a failure.

> watched it live from my front yard in Titusville - the wind was perfect and it was the loudest launch I have heard in a long time - my garage door was rattling for a good 5 or 6 minutes - perfect launch for the 4th of July !!
As long as Slashdot's a good 4 hours behind the times, let's get this outa the way too.

"Meh. Running Imperialist Lackey Dogs! Their shuttle pales in comparison to the People's Glorious Three-Part Fireworks Display that Dear Leader has orchestrated downrange of Pyongyang!"
--- END INTERCEPTED TRANSMISSION ---
Perfect finish to the Fourth, indeed, even if I didn't get to see the Shuttle launch and didn't have a need to know what happened to the non-decoy part of Kim's little fireworks show :)
Nice try, Kim. No cigar. You still so ronery.

yes, but 'engineerspeed' doesn't really sound as motivational. or as fast.
