"After having some business dealings with men, I am occasionally chagrined,
and feel as if I had done some wrong, and it is hard to forget the ugly circumstance.
I see that such intercourse long continued would make one thoroughly prosaic, hard,
and coarse. But the longest intercourse with Nature, though in her rudest moods, does
not thus harden and make coarse. A hard, sensible man whom we liken to a rock is
indeed much harder than a rock. From hard, coarse, insensible men with whom I have
no sympathy, I go to commune with the rocks, whose hearts are comparatively soft."

I'm just curious: Is there any particular reason that you're reviving a thread that's been dormant for nearly a year by posting a bare link to a document that's nearly ten years old?

Hi Alex,

I already explained my actions to Doug, but: I thought people on this
forum particularly might find a document on NEAR of interest that had
not been available online before (after all, I see plenty of info and talk
on space probes far older than that one) and I wanted to put it in a
thread relevant to NEAR, and this was the closest one I could find.

But if people don't want it and aren't interested, then feel free to get
rid of it. I have no personal attachment to it and certainly did not intend
to turn it into the big deal it apparently has become.
