re: Hello Bowser
I thought you'd already set out on your hike by now. Ah well, keep us posted when you can find a trail angel.
Shannon Lucid seems to be a bit of a character, by astronaut standards. I've always thought this picture of her from STS-79 is kinda cool; that was the flight that brought Lucid back from Mir, and there's just something about a station crewmember contentendly sunning herself in a Shuttle window at the end of a long and sometimes grueling tour of duty....
Arf arf to you!
