Mary "You did remember that, didn't you?"
Of course not, that's what we have you for. :-)
Truly, Mary is one of the indispensable regulars of the sci.space groups.
*And* she can knit an APC (Attachment Point Cover) with a fractal
design on it! And a scarf for the PLT to wear!

Quote: Consider who in this group are so quick to insult posters and qualify
them as ignorant people who shouldn't be posting here. (instead of
answering their questions politely and professionally).
There were a few well knowledgeable people who took pleasure in
answering people's questions, but there were equally many who took
pleasure in insulting those they felt weren't qualified to participate
in the group.
If the question comes across as genuine (not a troll) *and* isn't something
absurd that's been answered dozens of times in the past, then I think
responses are still generally polite and professional. But, there are only
so many troll postings, "Apollo lunar landings faked", and "shuttle to the
moon" postings that one can take before becoming a bit short with the
original poster.

Thanks. I didn't have my Jenkins with me here in DC. Couldn't remember it.
BTW, Mary did you get my email about me meeting a former coworker of yours?
Sure did..

Cool. I've had some weirdness with mail lately.
So s.s.s regulars, I haven't met the Grand Lady of s.s.s yet, but I've met
people who knew her. It's one step closer. ;-)

That photo is way too good to be anything I shot. Had to be Kim Keller.
Ah sorry, I was confusing you two. :-)
How is Kim these days?
Landed on his feet and doing quite fine, from what I hear (second-hand,
sadly). |

Kim posted to alt.binaries.pictures.aviation for a short time, but not for a
while now. Great pictures too. Glad to hear he's doing OK. |

Oh, and regarding the earlier posting regarding the ARocket mail list,
I subscribed. And I love it. All the headers and stuff make it a
little difficult to find the real content, but that's the point, there
is REAL content.
Take care . . .

You do understand that would be like lusting for Diana of the hunt in Greek
Mythology.
Many man may have tried, but like Icarus flying to close to the sun, it's
not good for your health.

No. He's simply above us mere mortals.
I thought that was obvious. :-)

As Damon pointed out, this is on the Shuttle Carrier Aircraft. Yes, folks
there have a sense of humor.
....Remember, we live in a day and age where patients who are getting
limbs amputated are asked to write "YES!" on the limb that's going
away with a large Sharpie so the surgeon doesn't get too confused.
