One of our friends lives on the first ridge south of

I have seen him flying his fixed wing ultralight high
over the San
Gabriel mountains amoung really big cumulus clouds.
I've wondered
about him.
Yesterday, Feb 22, 07, I saw an article in the AV Press
that he was
looking for water...on planets...300 to 900 TRILLION
miles from earth!
Carl (Karl) Grillmair is the study leader of the California
Institute
of Technology. We always knew our glider pilots were
special...WOW!
