@ SPACE STATION. With the recent failure of the Mars mission, the space
program could use a little pick-me-up. We all cheered when John Glenn took
to the skies again, but--let's face it--that was more a PR move by NASA
than anything of serious scientific merit. The Space Station, on the other
hand, that's where the real action is. Whether you're mildly curious about
this USA/Russian hookup far up in the sky or a die-hard aficionado of all
things interstellar, you'll find something of interest. Spacestation.com
offers true geeks the opportunity to view real-time space station data and
gives the rest of us a chance to meet crews, discover the history of space
travel, and view launchings. Who knows? Maybe someday we'll all be up
there, checking out Web sites about planet Earth. http://spacestation.com
: Have you designed/built/launched/inhabited/stolen/lost any space stations
lately? D'ya prefer spacestations of humans, aliens, robots? Are you spaced?

# Sacrificing humans to save animals? PETA gives grants to develop use

the quarterly publication of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals
<http://www.peta-online.org/>, announces the group's grants to companies
developing human embryo testing as one of the alternatives to the use of
rats and other beasts in product safety tests. Use lawyers, politicos too:

: Would you rather test chemicals on humans, animals, aliens, robots, me? Do
you want to be a lab rat? What should we test on you? Do you want payment??
