Glad we don't stop all cars from driving on roads and highways for a year or two every time there is a major wreck or death on the highway...... Life is fragile, handle with care and prayer. But you have to go on.....

This is great news. My personal and professional life seemed to be going down the toilet on the day that this tragedy happened. At the time, it gave me so much to think about, how blessed I was and how these heros had given so much. Now, almost two years later, my life is so much better and its wonderful to hear that NASA is going back into the sky. There's a wonderful Christian song which goes, "God and time" that's all we need.

If cars cost $1,700,000,000.00 each (plus tax, title, and license), they might stop for an accident.

Indeed, just so. The resumption of American manned space flight is the only fitting tribute to these heroes...

Same here. On the other hand, if we learned through bitter experience that there existed a 2% chance of an incident that would destroy 25% of all the cars and kill their occupants, a hiatus might be in order.

The shuttle is the wrong spaceship for the wrong mission at the wrong time. Soyuz is the right spaceship for the wrong mission at the wrong time.
