I don't mind questions at all; it's the wild speculation that is getting on everybody's nerves.

Perhaps you, too, should watch the reruns of the press conference today. Not that I think you'd believe anything they say. It's hard to be fair when you EXPECT everything they say to be a lie.

2.67 pounds of energy is what hit the wing.

Howlin, when you watch that video again, please look at it in relation to the rest of the craft. Not only is the object much larger than you think, but it is moving much faster than you think.

If NASA is saying that this hit with the pressure of 2.67 pounds, they're just flat out lying. The weight of this object alone has to be in excess of 2.67 pounds. Compound that by the speed and you have far more stress than the impact of 2.67 pounds.

If this is what they put out this afternoon, I'm glad I didn't hear it.
