Think you will get any apologies?

Nah,,,,,,,lol

I did get for FR what I set out to get that night which was the fact this site was the first with the news of this story. And that came by the next day with the WSJ story and a week later the times story, I was just glad it was bumped all night and the right people did read it. Read the first part of the thread I was always pointing here.

That thread that evening went other directions as you know but I knew from the start that leadpenny asking that question of winodog about a glow and his answer about it being on fire, that no doubt in my mind that it was in trouble over California and Nevada and had to of been on fire from re-entry. The rest of the mystery fell into place as the thread went on and on throught that night.

Todd, this is old news isn't it?

Thanks for the flag.

Yeah it was really cool how it turned out for FR. Congratulations to Leadpenny and to you for sticking to your guns on this one and having a really thick skin. You were taking some serious slings and arrows. Besides the two long threads I think there were a total of 8 threads that night and you were really catching heat on all of them and on into the next day. I hope some of the articles I sent helped you out.
