Does anyone here read sci.space.tech?
The reason I ask it because, quite suddenly, it seems to be unavalible. I'm wondering if it's just earthlink, or did it disappear? Wouldn't have anything to do with that 100 foot rock that missed us by that much Thursday, would it? Richard (paranoid, I know, but paranoid enough?) |

Oh yea, the rock! The one that made the evening news (not!)

If the Earth were the bulls eye, that shot wouldn't have cut paper. But it does make one wonder how much warning one might actually get... First noticed - Monday? Passed over the South Atlantic Thursday? Anyway, back to real problems... It looks like earthlink news servers. Googling the groups shows there are active threads Oh well... Patience is something I need to learn. Right NOW. |

The earth's diameter is about 7,926 miles, so 26,000 miles would be a bit more than three diameters, if we want to pick nits. http://hypertextbook.com/facts/1999/...Martinez.shtml -- Kevin Horton RV-8 (finishing kit) Ottawa, Canada http://go.phpwebhosting.com/~khorton/rv8/ e-mail: khorton02(_at_)rogers(_dot_)com |

Thanks for noticing...
Actually, I was having a real hard time watching any 'news' coverage last week what with all the noise about the 1 year anniversary of this so-called war, so it could have been slipped in on of the 10 second sound bites and I would have missed it... -- Dan D. ..

Ten seconds is about what it got, too. Back on (OT?) thread of SST, it looks like what happened is, for the first time in my net life, I've been blocked by a group moderator. Not redirected to sci.space.policy, as per the group charter, but erased. Me too. I can't even see the headers from my browser. You think it might have had something to do with the following? ------------------------------------------ First noticed, excuse me, Monday? Why did the hair stand up on the back of my neck? |
