    Wel also don't spend billions of dollars every time we get in a car, Stacie. Billions of dollars for what? To launch people into space to conduct some experiments? Is it worth the risk?



    Now here's a good percentage analogy. There have been approximately 115 Shuttle missions since the shuttle was first put into commission. Of those missions, two ended fatally (Challenger-1986; Columbia-2003). Doing the math, that is 1.7% (let's say 2%) of all shuttle missions are doomed.



    Now let's assume for a minute that Americans get into the car to drive somewhere 10 billion times in a year. Using that same 2% fatality rate, 34 MILLION of those "trips" are doomed.



    See where I'm going with this? a 2% safety risk is unacceptable in my book. If we can't get into space safely and return safely, we have no business being there. Outer space will always be there. Let's get this right before we go back.

    Hold on, SHE obviously had to work New Years Day. Why is she so suprised you had to also? Hell, I prefer working holidays. None of those pesky users around to keep bugging me while I'm trying to get real work done.

    Ironic, becuase last week I learned enough Actionscript to be dangerous :P

    You're having email issues. I sent you a message at home and got "Recipient's mailbox is full, message returned to sender. (#5.2.2)"



    It's always the little things, isn't it.
