It's rather time-disorienting that the URL (and you) say 2006, but the dateline in the web-article itself says 2007, AND there's a picture of Sir Edmund Hillary with "1919-2008" underneath. It kind of feels like those recently updated "Cosmos" episodes, where we see Hubble and shuttle pictures that didn't EXIST when Carl Sagan first made the series (or was alive, for that matter). Are our historical archives all to be INFECTED BY THE FUTURE? ;-) -Doug Elrod ([email protected]) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "World News Now Discussion List" group.
