Once again someone has mentioned the infamous 'straw' mistake in 2001. 
Over the years I have heard various things about this - some claim that
it is a true error and others say that because of surface tension etc that
it really should happen albeit perhaps more slowly. With all the NASA 
people on the net perhaps someone could suggest that on a future shuttle
flight they put the matter to rest once and for all. (if they already
have let me know and I'll put myself to rest once and for all).
