...Just to give the group a new topic to chew on and get things back
to normalcy a bit, here's one that hit me while I'm watching my ripped
copies of E2M on continuous play during today's system rebuilds(*) and
updates to XP: When going "around the room" in the MOCR for final
go/no-go for any particular major mission phase, was there a set order
in which each flight controller was polled by the Flight Director?

From fading memory, the go-no-go poll in early shuttle days was by console
location,
left to right, front row to back row (surgeon sat at back rightmost
position).
This was because Flight was usually standing and looking at every controller
who
locked eyes with him during the process.

Maybe other FD's had a list in front of them, with some sort of
prioritization that escapes me.
