My OSH thoughts

Dave Butler asked,

There was supposed to have been an event on Monday night featuring Scott
and
Mike Melville at Theater in the Woods. Weather was threatening and I
didn't go.
Did anyone? Was the event held?

Scott was at the SS1 crew press conference and was recognized by one of
the
crew, I think it was Rutan ("...I see Scott Crosfield is in the audience,
hi
Scott..."). Turns out he was right behind me just a few feet away in his
golf cart.

Yeah, Melville and Crossfield went up on stage together and answered some
questions. It was great to watch. Both of them were witty and played off
each other. Melville was talking about SpaceShipOne's feather arrangement
and Crossfield said "Sure, I bend an airplane in half and I'm a screw up.
You do it and you're a hero." It was a lot of fun to watch....till the storm
hit hard. Even then it was worth it.
