Not really on topic with this PTR, but sort of related.

 

I just heard on the radio this morning on the way to work that NASA will be laying off something like 40% of their work force soon because they are phasing out the space shuttle program.

Thank you. Much appreciated.

Next time you're in Florida, Kennedy is worth a look. I hear decent things about the space center in Kansas too. Where ever you go, it's a tradition to have some freeze-dried ice cream.

 

Enjoyed your recent BGA TR. I'm with you on the cool Montu trains.

Sad and unfortunate, but typical of government contract work. Hope those folks can get on other programs quickly. Feel for them.
