For a while, I had respect for this community. I've lost that now.
First of all, this woman was my aunt; someone dear to me, and not a subject of your mockery and malice. Second, this is a thread HONORING those who died in a horrible accident that brought a nation to tears and safety reforms to a space program ravaged by the need for constant positive publicity.
Third, and apart from any vestiges of good taste and respect that might be found in this thread, one does not go about proving a RUMOR wrong. It is impossible to dig up information about something that never happened. This isn't a duel. There are no challenges. If you have evidence that might or might not verify something, you step forward with it, or you shut the hell up. You do not accuse those near to the subject of the rumor of hiding something. Otherwise, you are truly nothing more than the Anonymous Coward the "by" field declares so perfectly.
Let me repeat that in small words in case you're fool enough not to understand. You have something? Step forward. Else? Back the hell off.
On a post honoring those that died in the Challenger accident, you feel its appropriate the spread some sort of bullshit rumor about one of the astronauts? Judith Resnik was a close relative of mine, and I personally take offense at your senseless remark. Watch what comes out of your mouth, RainbowSix.
