28.11.04. "Zero Gravity" and the height of waste! When NASA first started sending up astronauts, they quickly discovered that ball-point pens would not work in zero gravity. To combat this problem, NASA scientists then spent a decade and $12 billion developing a pen that writes in zero gravity, upside-down, on almost any surface including glass and at temperatures ranging from below freezing to over 300 C. The Russians used a pencil. Your taxes are due again soon - enjoy paying them or watch the roads being dug in Panjim and dust inhaled... Has the "scientist" of the Goa University seems to have lost his "instrument?" X.B.Moidekar
