Saw that Jay! It was "Black Sky", but yours was close enough. That
Melvill's got balls.
What a great country we live in!

Discovery aired a documentary on Space Ship One last night, which I thought
was outstanding. It was called "Dark Sky: The Race for Space."
In it, they had many "behind-the-scenes" shots and interviews with Burt
Rutan, the pilots, and even a few moments of the elusive Paul Allen, Rutan's
sponsor.
Best of all, during a commercial break, I flipped over to CNN -- where they
were interviewing Rutan at his home, discussing today's upcoming flight
attempt. During the interview it became apparent that everyone in the
house was tuned to The Discovery Channel, watching the same documentary!
When Rutan said "It's back on!" I knew it was time to switch back to
Discovery...
Man, that must've burned CNN's cookies...
