    I know some of you out there follow space issues pretty closely. For those of you who may not know, UARS is a US satellite that's not going to be in orbit much longer. Considering my water heater died last night, I just have a bad feeling... :) Anyway, any of you space wizards have a link that shows where the satellite is? Realtime? I've not found anything on NASA's site yet.

        I don't think there's a observable behavioral difference between Dave's "weekday" and "weekend", suggestign that for his environment interaction this is a artificial distinction.

                      I wrote some software which could determine its landing point to within one meter, but it never got released. Apparently there's a petition going around to halt software patents, and I wasn't about to cheat myself out of some potential millions in income, so...

                        This combined with the recent announcement of particles traveling faster than light, I think we finally have an explanation for Tunguska.
