I am tired of hearing the news reporters saying that everybody took the shuttle launch and landing for granted. I for one watched in awe everytime they showed a launch or landing. In that same thread I was cut to the heart when I heard the news this morning. I suppose some took it for granted, but it was mainly the media that did. People do not understand the amazing thing that is accomplished everytime we shoot something into space because it is not reported like that. Heres hoping they find whats wrong and fix the problems so that we can continue to achieve these great accomplishments and maybe we weill begin to see them as such.
You make good points and we could sit here and respond back and forth with each other until we come the conclusion that neither of us are going to change our minds. I just had to get some of the stuff off my chest and I am sorry that I brought up something that has brought such harm to you. I suppose one day one of us will be proven the fool here, but that is not for here and not for now. I just ask that you seek out God, leave behind the atrocities commited against you by the church in the past, and allow God to move in you life.
First you complain about the way he handles things then you doubt his ability and his motive. No wonder he wont listen to you. Perhaps if you were to try to believe in his power for once instead of assuming that you know the perfect way things are suppose to be. I am sorry but I am tired of people thinking that they have it all figured out, while God who is infinitly wise does not. Please understand that I have seen the power of prayer. I have felt the love of God and it is something that is incredible.
On launch day, a piece of insulating foam on the external fuel tank came off during lift-off and was believed to have struck the left wing of the shuttle.
This may not have been safe as NASA thought, and could have led to wild vibrations that would then cause the orbitor to break up.
May God comfort the heart and souls of the friends and families.
You inspired me to go retrieve my old Model M out of the basement and recommision it for use. Nothing like using a keyboard that is almost 20 years old, but I am convineced that coachroaches, Joan Rivers and Model M keyboards will be the only things to survive a nuclear holocost.

Craig built a neutron modulator (which slows down the emitted neutrons so they can be detected) out of a few hundred spare CDs.
I knew I was collecting the AOL CDs for something.
Will this be a Star Wars Galaxies expanision pack?
Personally, I was more distrubed that "Kangaroo Jack" was included in the nominees...
Amen to that brother!!
