Well -- I just got home from picking up the latest, and final (probably) Harry Potter book. And of course, I skipped right to the end to see how it all comes out. I won't say anything, but I'm not displeased. As for light reading, though -- this one is 759 pages long.
And now, off to the summation of the adventure...  -the other Doug -------------------- “The trouble ain't that there is too many fools, but that the lightning ain't distributed right.” -Mark Twain

I'm sure they ordered Oppy not to communicate this week-end so SS can read his own copy.

QUOTE (climber @ Jul 21 2007, 05:52 PM)  I'm sure they ordered Oppy not to communicate this week-end so SS can read his own copy. or Well, even if Oppy did communicate this weekend, there would be little in the downlink that would interest SS (beyond knowing Oppy's status) since science ops have been suspended for a while. or ? I'd have to say . What's even is that I had to do a web search to find out what this Harry Potter thing was all about.
