	Watching the 30-second video on the news of yesterday's shuttle
launch, I noticed that the SRBs were still burning when they separated, and
kept doing so for at least a few seconds (i.e. as long as they showed
them).  To me, this means they waste some significant fraction of the SRB
thrust after separation.  Is that really true?
