Tuesday, Oct 31 12:00 a local CBS station carried news of the launch
of one US astronaut and two Russian cosmonauts to the International Space
Station.

        In the background the words " about fifteen hundred meters per second";
and a few seconds later, the words "forty seven hundred meters" could be
clearly heard.  I was not able to discern the context of these two fragmented 
quotations, but it was a pleasure hearing *spoken* SI from the ISS program.

Gene.
