Anything that expensive is a huge political hot potato ... with opinions both for and against. But no other nation on earth has taken the time or expense for such a vision.

I just hope we can move past all the naysayers and continue with space exploration. -= )-(eather =- >--------------------< hjames@thewebgal.com My Music Trading Lists: http://www.thewebgal.com/trades/ The Roxy Music Archives: http://www.thewebgal.com/roxymusic/ >============================================================< - -----Original Message----- From: owner-avalon@smoe.org [mailto:owner-avalon@smoe.org]On Behalf Of Daniel Atterbom Sent: Sunday, February 02, 2003 5:24 AM To: Avalon@smoe.org Subject: Re: [AVALON] Re: Space shuttle explodes At 15.37 -0600 03-02-01, M.M.K. wrote: >I'm sure everyone has heard the Columbia exploded over Texas this >morning.
