And what's really
interesting about that particular Roman senator is that, according to
what records do survive from that era, he really *did* have quite a
harem of sorts, and by those same accounts he a) freed them all after
buying them, b) they stayed as his "slaves" on their own accord, every
single one of them, c) never forced himself upon his harem, and loved
them all equally enough to where d) he wound up with at least thirty
children by them who, while not heirs to his fortunes, were at least
born as free Roman citizens by his own accord.

I want to be this guy when I grow up :-)


If there is a problem with that movie, it's that those two guys are
really likable, when they are supposed to be despicable. Of course
compared to Crassus everybody in the movie seems like a pretty nice guy.

That would be a 12-day *historic* mission. All missions are now
*historic*. Me thinks they kind of overuse that word.

I remember this coming up during STS-107; that flight turned out to be a
little more historic than we wanted, but here are some notes I made at
the time:

Suggestions to fill the gaps are appreciated.

Andrew,

I read you list and really enjoyed it, good work.

A question for you, if you please:

For STS-86 you listed: "86 - First shuttle crew to document their
training on a public website."

I attempted googling for that site and came up with lots of nothing
(to say I came up empty-handed would be inaccurate).

Do you have any idea where I could find the site or the archived
information?

Thank you in advance.

Lord knows - I think I got it off a NASA site about the mission.

http://www.kluft.com/~ikluft/pics/m2cc/sts-86.html links to
http://www.phoenix.net/~shuttle/ which 404s - it does seem to have survived
into ~2000, though.

After some hackery, try:

(If that doesn't work, add noframeshomepage.htm to the end and try again -
Opera got a bit cagey)
