You know, in a perfect world where UMSF had lots & lots of money, it would make perfect sense to have tracking stations widely separated in latitude but fairly close in longitude. This redundancy would not only minimize the impact of equipment failures but also offer considerable immunity from local weather effects...

Careful what you say now, or as soon as the balloon is finished Doug will be building one on the roof of his shed. -------------------- If Occam had heard my theory, things would be very different now.
