...so would we rename Oppy "Thelma" or "Louise" for this new mission?

QUOTE (djellison @ Apr 20 2008, 12:23 PM)  Just a bit of fun, if all else fails (With apologies to Morrissey and Marr...) Park Oppy at the side of Duck Bay, You should know time's tide will smother it And dust will too When you laugh about rovers who feel so very lonely Their only desire is to die Well, I'm afraid it doesn't make me smile I wish I could laugh But that joke isn't funny anymore It's too close to home And it's too near the bone It's too close to home And it's too near the bone More than you'll ever know ... [...] I've seen this happen in other people's missions And now... it's happening in ours?   -------------------- --

Nice poem, IM!
<sigh>...well, all things must end someday...but for some reason I don't think it's Oppy's time, not quite yet. Don't have a rational reason for that opinion, really, but just got a feeling. -------------------- 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.
