Default X-Prize Won! I said it wouldn't be done.

Back when the X-Prize was announced with a deadline of
January 1, 2005 I said it would not be won.

I also said that I thought Burt Rutan was too busy with
other programs and that he would not compete for
the prize.

I was utterly and completely wrong and
I am very happy that is true.

This mornings flight was absolutely beautiful.
