nowhere to go but down?


Jim, the original question is as stated previously. That the Shuttle
will land after reentry is not the point.

And once again we have been saved from the horrors of paraphrasing by
the courageous Captain Semantics and his trusty sidekick The Punctuation
Kid.

Having been suitably chastised, I scurry in search of a multi-windowed
newsreader to ensure every turn of a phrase, nay every letter and comma,
is 100% pristine in any followup.
