RE: A great R/C loss?
That's funny (not) we just had a pickup crash into a gas tanker truck in Merritt Island FL. Both drivers were killed and the resulting explosion and fire, which burned the overpass where the accident happend, have closed it for the next month or so. Traffic has been a nightmare for us driving to work at KSC and CCAFS since the wreck. Here's a link concerning the accident (latest report indicates that it was 8k gallons of fuel involved). No RC involved, but bummer nonetheless.

On a lighter note, I was stationed at MAFB from 1984 to 1989 and loved it. Working the 84 Olympics was a blast (golf course is pretty awesome too). I still think southern Cal has the best weather in the country (by far).
