I'm thinking that poor Ken didn't realize that it was only 10 or 15
years ago.

BTW, if anyone is too young to have ever seen the movie Apollo
13, watch it. I love the part with Marilyn Lovell ordering
the reporters off her lawn who couldn�t even be bothered to
cover the mission until it turned into a potential disaster.
�Those people don�t put one piece of equipment on my

with my husband ... he�ll be home Friday.� Movie has more
great quotes than you can shake a stick at.

Humans think negative more than positive. I saw this yesterday:

It does seem to me that people started out focusing on the

failures, now the cycle is starting over with private
enterprise.
I don�t like the way people universally started to talk
about the Space Shuttle like some enormous failure to be
mocked. NASA and their contractors were told to build a
reusable space truck for delivering stuff to orbit, and
that�s what they built. At the beginning people ignored
the risks and marveled at the successes. Then there were
some failures, and eventually no one cared about the
successes, it wasn�t new and shiny.

I still think NASA should have been revamped. Private
entities should foot the bill for all failures, paid only
upon success.
