Default [OT] Peacekeeper Launch from Vandenberg

I just saw the Peacekeeper launch from Vandenberg AFB (California).
Excellent view from San Jose - I've seen several launches from here,
and this one was in the "very good" category. Bright yellow-orange
exhaust, separation of the first stage clearly visible; after
separation could trace the first stage boosters falling down for
about 30 sec.

The sight of couple of dozen million dollars evaporating is
always impressive, :-)
