Martin S. writes: Thirty years ago today, NASA suffered a spaceflight tragedy that stunned the world and changed the agency forever. When I mentioned this at work most of my colleagues are too young to remember this first hand. When I heard the news, I was in a middle-school science class; our teacher walked us solemnly over to the school library, where we watched the television news. It hit especially hard because one of our other teachers had pursued the slot that was eventually filled by Christa McAuliffe.

Fucking USELESS ACs... I wish Slashdot would get rid of the AC concept entirely. It is FAR too often simply an excuse for abuse and hate-mongering.
I'm relieved to see that you used your full legal name here, "macs4all", and not some sort of a pseudonym or alias. Otherwise we'd have to think that you're posting your hatred anonymously, like some sort of a coward!
I have used my Slashdot Username; which, I notice, is FAR more than you used, YOU STUPID FUCKTARD!!!
