Should probably be viewed and bookmarked. And one of the many things that makes Free Republic so cool. Like having someone witnessing and posting about Kennedy's assination, or something.

Remarkable.

Re: the real time shuttle thread...it is pretty amazing (thanks to the net) that a chain of people, living in different states can all witness an event in sequence like that. This kind of tech was a pipe dream when we were little scrubs.

Today I noticed that Nasa and some news organizations put out requests for pictures that the general public might have taken of this event. I'm (only?) 41 and remember when all that was available was the ubiquitous Instamatic camera. It took days to get the film developed. Now we can just capture an image and send in anywhere in minutes.

Occasionally I stop taking things for granted long enough to marvel at them. </dorky rambling>
