There is one thing about this game called 'life', you can't get out of it alive. If there is an all powerful God/creator, he is also a destroyer, who kills 100% of the people he created.

When I look at the sentiments expressed there and see that you were a 'parts trouble shooter' for the Space Shuttle it makes me think how inspiring that must be for the astronauts. By any chance were you in charge of foam insulation adhesive?

No, not those particular adhesives. However, I was responsible to assure that the workers had many of the other adhesives which were current 'in date', and this sometimes varied from a matter of minutes/hours to months. Sometimes it got to be quite a scramble to get new adhesives, particularly, those mixed for a specific application, and we had no more components, and the last batch 'expired'.

You may be interested in looking at our analysis of the Colombia fiasco/murders. I was a major contributor to the thread, which had over 4000 responses.
We beat NASA analysis by months:
