I’m so racist, I didn’t even notice they were white. Or old. I just noticed they were kinda geeky.

They done harpooned a whale
And, technically, we were first with NEAR, but that was just cream on the coffee, and we didn't use a harpoon.

NASA to release photo of Obama looking at a comet.
To: cripplecreek
Thanks. So it was just the Speed of Light.
Next question:
While the congratulatory speeches were nice I was hoping for some video feeds.
Any idea what we will get to see and when?
To: Dagnabitt
... looking into the big tube part, no doubt.
