It will suffice, however, to mark any branch on any tree visible from here. How far will it get through thick fog? I mean the sort of fog that makes you wish you hand't had a meeting away from home that evening because you're crawling along at 15 mph because if you go much faster, you might not see the edge of the road before you start to go off, and you're taking the turns around 5 to make sure you don't end up in one of the deep ditches on either side of the road you're turning on to.

I really like the job, and the people I work with. I Cool! Have you ever worked with/met any Lockheed people working on the JCM (Joint Common Missile) program? They do testing up at Redstone fairly often. I don't work on JCM myself, but I work with some of those guys regularly. Last fall I also worked with a helicopter crew from RTTC, which I think is based out of Redstone. And I just met a guy from RDEC who came down here to Orlando to talk about some radar work he's doing up there. Do you use CSF for your simulation? I've used that here - I think it's a great tool.

I wouldn't mind, that would be fun, but I cannot organize it. ...and all my Brin is 12,500 miles away... So that's me and Charlie that can't organize it. :) Anyone?
