QUOTE (djellison @ Nov 6 2007, 06:12 AM)  I can't remember how and why I started the place, or how and why I came up with the UMSF URL....it's very strange. DOug Sounds like post-traumatic stress disorder, dude...think we all appreciate (way too weak a word) how much work keeping this place up must be. You & the admins NEVER have to worry about buying your own drinks if ever there's a real-life UMSF pub crawl...

I also found this link via another spaceflight-related website (a good one, though) when searching for more info on MGS's silence just about a year ago. I was a happy lurker until one day an article was released (and I can no longer remember what it was about now) that I was surprised wasn't being discussed here yet. So I went through the registration process so I could start a thread on it and sure enough, while I was doing all that, someone posted the article.
 But I certainly have no regrets. Even though I don't have much to add to a discussion normally, this is such a great place and it's so wonderful to read what the experts (and fellow enthusiasts) have to say about all of these audacious missions we've dared to embark on. -------------------- - Matt

Would be fun to post some pics where we try to look comfortable after meeting each other in real life...  (Yes, that's a warning about me... ) Damndest thing about the Net is that it brings people together, but usually based on a single common interest; we're all a lot more complex then that, of course.There are several of us here in LA...anybody else interested? Emily's a must-attend, of course, family needs & personal feelings permitting. I live in central LA, close to the 10/110 intersection, but, hell, I'm mobile enough. -------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.

I'm not really sure how i found the mer.rlproject.com forum, but i'm glad i did ! Opportunity was still approaching Endurance Crater...
The funny thing, at least for me, is that i soon realized that i already saw Djellison's alias somewhere else (the RSC forum) where we shared the same passion for Formula One, present and past, real or virtual

I joined after I saw Doug's suggestion on Usenet - I think in sci.space.policy - that he was thinking of starting a Mer forum, and would anyone be interested? I've been here for over four years now, and I'm still a newbie. -- Martin |
