What we are hearing here was that the astronauts were doomed at takeoff from possible damage. We are also told that there was insufficient fuel for them to rendezvous with the Space Station. We are also told that they had insufficient supplies to wait for a rescue event, if it had been determined as necessary, which it was not. The deck seems as if it was stacked. -- Keith Antoine (GANDALF) aka 'skippy' 18 Arkana St, The Gap, Queensland 4061 Australia PH:61733002161 Retired Geriatric, Sometime Electronics Engineer, Knowall, Brain in storage _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
