[FAQ] Minor notice Columbia Loss FAQ
....Just a quick update for anyone who tried to access the Columbia
Loss FAQ on Thursday: Due to a glitch on one of IO's servers this morning, between 11am and 5pm the FAQ was offline. This has been remedied, natch, but I'd like to thank any of the [quick look & tally]...43 people who e-mailed me the heads-up that it was down who are out there on .history, .policy and, of course, .shuttle. Sorry for the inconvenience as well to anyone who tried to access the FAQ. ....On a side note, I've tenatively planned most of the month of August for a full reappraisal of the FAQ's format & contents, and will be posting an RFI for additions and corrections. Of major note is that one section will probably be removed, and that's the section dealing with what the CAIB had found during the course of the investigation: http://www.io.com/~o_m/columbia_loss...indings_so_far Since the CAIB has released their report, this section has become somewhat redundant and unnecessary. It was good while the pieces were coming together to the puzzle, but a link to the PDF files wherever they're now located will probably suffice. If time permits, a basic "layman's terms" summary may be included. Now, someone please pass this on to Pat, since he's apparently refusing to remove me from his killfile, and since he was one of the major contributors he deserves to know. Especially since I expect him to still contribute... OM -- "No ******* ever won a war by dying for | http://www.io.com/~o_m his country.
