You may want to ask why this topic now ?
As I previously said, I was in Pasadena with TPS to witness Spirit landing. TPS tapped the event and broadcasted it on the Planetary radio. The file is now hidden somewhere in the database but I still have it on my computer and it make me cry every single time I listen to it . These are very tense moments and all of us know how EDL ended up, but, anyway, if you've never listen to it, it realy worth it. You can choose between MP3 and Windows Media : http://www.planetary.org/radio/show/00000100/ Enjoy... and listen to me, I was one of the many shooting Climber -------------------- |

I really, really hope you don't mean that! Oh sure. People don't realize that we are all still cowboys out here in the American West. There's always lots of hollering and shooting when we celebrate. When you get off the plane in Hawaii they give you flowers, but in the mainland states we loan our European visitors a .38 revolver for celebrations and street fights.

Now, for some reason, that's *exactly* what I always thought. You know, John Wayne moseys down to the bar at JPL, spots Steve Squyres across the room, there's a quick 'The hell you say!' and suddenly the piano stops playing, the crowd scuttles away from their consoles and we all start to wait for the moment when Emily hits somebody over the head with a 'Whiskey' bottle... ...then the fighting stops, they start boiling water and there's the sound of a baby crying. Oh, and did I mention the smoke signals? And the Sheriff is never, ever a n(DONG!DONG!DONG!)... Bob Shaw -------------------- Remember: Time Flies like the wind - but Fruit Flies like bananas!

Then you glance out the window, study the desert scenery and say, "Hey wait a minute, that's not the American West! It looks more like Sardinia! We're in the middle of one of those Italian knock-off films!"
