I saw Scobee's son speack on C-Span today.

Man that guy looks just like his father.

Watched a good part of the CNN story on Christa McAuliff's family.

Lot of bitter angry feelings there.

Acting as if they were never aware that there could be risk or danger.

Kind of a sad way to memorialize their sister who followed her dream.

Houston, Memorial Service:

As long as I live, I will never, ever forget the sight of watching on TV as Scobee's (?) daughter collapse in tears in President Reagan's arms and watching as he embraced her in his arms and just held her.

My God, what an effect that scene had on me.

I cried as if my own father had perished. I felt the comfort of President Reagan's embrace as strongly as I would have, had I been there.

Thank God for President Reagan. I consider him the greatest President of our lifetime.
