Wasn't it the second?<br />In any case, it's a week that I take the time to revisit the history of manned spaceflight.<br />As someone who's lived through every bit of it, it's a little sobering memorial amid all the triumphs. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#000080"><em><font color="#000000">But the Krell forgot one thing John.

I meant the date. Wasn't it Feb 2 for Columbia.<br />"I remember Ann waking me up and saying "You need to look at this on TV"<br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#000080"><em><font color="#000000">But the Krell forgot one thing John.

Is it me, or is this just a bad time of the year for manned spaceflight? <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p> </p><p><em>So, again we are defeated. This victory belongs to the farmers, not us.</em></p><p><strong>-Kambei Shimada from the movie Seven Samurai</strong></p> </div>

That was the point of my thread <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" /><br />All our loss of life disasters have occured within one week on the calendar.<br />I'm not superstisious, but.......<br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#000080"><em><font color="#000000">But the Krell forgot one thing John.
