Rande, I am sure that it will all come out in time. Recent resignations tell some kind of a tale. So far it seems as if misjudgement of the foam damages and the decision to not examine the shuttle every time from orbit with an external walk or viewer. I know that they could have sent a man out in a suit and he can stay back 40 feet and have the shuttle turn slowly as he takes videos is a no brainer. That means noboby though of it, me a retired non space walker though of it. For the life of me I cannot see any reason it cannot be done. For the life of a few others it should have been done. Bill
