It's a good, direct writeup by a reporter from Christa's home town. He had the closest contact of anyone during the selection process and her training. mike -- *** mike (starship janitor) smithwick *** "Being a dwarf does have it's shortcomings" [disclaimer : nope, I don't work for NASA, I take full blame for my ideas]
