I'm sure you've all been seeing it. I wonder how long it will take to figure out exactly what happened

It was a terrible wakeup call this morning. Because Im in NZ anything that happens in the states normally happens early in our morning, 3am Sunday. The alarm went on at 9am and it certainly woke us up in a hurry. It was truly a horrific thing that happened.

It is truly sad the lost of life. My heart and prayers go out to the families. I was working for Rockwell at the time the shuttle Challenger exploded. Now I am working for IBM, so I won't get the inside information, like I did. Hopefully Boeing we find the problem and resolve it quickly. It is a marvel to see the enter working of the shuttle.

I didn't even find out about it till a couple of hours ago... I woke up at 9am because of a phone call saying "Get your white *ss out of bed, I'm coming to pick you up and we're going to the beach in 5 minutes"... so I did and when I got home at 6pm everybody was talking about horrible disasters and tragedies etc...

I really feel for all those who lost loved ones. My sincere condolences.
