Has Kilroy been there yet?-)

I wouldn't be at all surprised if he shows up shortly. :-)
What it needs is a big red glowing button that has "DON'T EVER PUSH!"
written under it, and of course the inevitable glowing eye of the
HAL-9000. A tribble or two in the interior would also be a nice touch.

How about a sign that says, "Git 'r Done!"

I'd vote for one of those KING SIZE Hershey(tm) chocolate bars* floating
just far enough from the cupola to look like the Monolith from 2001.

*Yeah, yeah, I *know* what you're thinking, but I'm waaay ahead of you.
Before doing that, I'd make sure the Space Treaty was amended to BAN
Baby Ruth's from ALL spacecraft! There is NO REASON to treat them any
differently in space from nuclear warheads....

One of the drones from Silent Running...

That was about the only decent part in SW: Ep 1, the homage to Silent
Running.

I must have missed that part (I wish I'd missed the whole thing; I did
manage that on the two sequels) what exactly did they do?

Pat

It may just be my imagination, but when the R2 units were repairing the
Queen's craft as she was escaping Naboo very much reminded me of Silent
Running.

Were it so easy on Usenet... ;-)

According to the book "Dragonfly" this whole EVA got pretty heated, to
the point that Cosmonaut Solovyov claimed Cosmonaut Tsibiyev punched
Astronaut Jerry Linenger in the space helmet at one point.
Linenger said that EVA'ing was absolutely terrifying, as he felt like he
was falling towards the Earth the entire time, and he never wanted to do
a EVA again as long as he lived.

Paul is a rep from Houston. Any questions?
