Re: Discovery is down ok

Yep I saw that on CNN, it was Miles O'Brien was doing the interview. That
was poignant though, as if Columbia had not disintegrated in 2003, Miles had
been slated to be the next Journalist in space.

Glad the Shuttle is down now, but be interesting to see when and if it flies
again

Cheers

Andy
