"How did you find these chapters?"

Internet search, that's how I did the thread. Unless you're talking something else..... Due to an extreme personal situation, I will never forget this date. I thought it was appropriate to post this thread.

You surely did your homework.

Just went and checked my library. I have Volumes I thru V of the Presidents Commission on the Space Shuttle...." So what happened that day to you??

Here's what I wrote on another post a short time ago as to where I was....

Working for NASA/Houston, sitting in the Space Shuttle Program Manager's conference room, with many Shuttle managers and employees, watching the worst occurence in NASA's history.

The room was silent without a pin drop, for about 10 minutes after the event. Many in the room knew the crew members as coworkers and close friends. I personally had dinner with one of the female astronauts, Judy Resnik, about a week earlier, and had been invited to the launch by the Hawaiian astronaut, Ellison Onizuka, but it was a busy time at work.

Sad, how very sad. We could not believe the decision to GO FOR LAUNCH, for it was a dreadfully cold freezing day.
