Subject: STS-116: anybody from SAA viewing the launch?



Greets, my brothers (and sisters) and you too Shawn ;-)

I'll be leaving for Florida (DAB) on Tuesday, staying in Flagler Beach for
a week, with a visit to KSC for the launch (got tix--dinner and launch,
only dinner guaranteed). Anyone else opt for rubber chicken, astronaut
chitchat and so forth? It would be nice to say hello to some folks from
the newsgroup. (I am actually a real person, and rather nice, if I do say
so myself.) A friend is lending me a Megrez 80 and alt-az for travel.
Perhaps a little observing? I'll be returning to California the 15th.

Clear Skies,
