Stop the wake up songs for pete's sake
(Tom Merkle) writes:
It seems the item of greatest importance on JPL's list everyday is
informing the public of what catchy tune the 'song coordinator' has
picked out for the rover wakeup that day. Come on, not every single
event has to be serenaded by a song title. This became silly somewhere
around the third week, and the worst example was yesterday when
somebody thought it would be cool to play 'Dig Down Deep' by Hot Soup
for the rover digging a trench. For anyone who's never heard it, the
song has nothing to do with digging beyond the title.
Stop the wake up songs!
I didn't realize that they were continuing this "grand tradition" for
an unmanned mission. Unfortunately, it serves no purpose for an
unmanned vehicle. I also fail to see the improvement over a "wake-up
tone" for waking up a crew. Nothing like a good, loud, siren to wake
you up in the morning. ;-)

If it says "This is not spam!", it's surely a lie.
