Sorry to take up space here with this, but...
can anyone tell me where on the net I can get a hold of MacSat, or any
other satellite tracking program for the Mac?  I remember seeing a 
posting of it being anonymously-ftp'able somewhere a month or 2 ago,
but I don't remember where it was.
Thanks.

P.S.  If anyone is interested, I, being a humble sole without access to any
advanced communications equipment (i.e. scanner), have been making use of
NASA's "dial-a-shuttle" line for the last couple of launches.  For those who
don't know, it becomes active around an hour before launch and I think remains
so until landing, and basically lets you listen in on the shuttle
communications.  The number is:
1-900-909-NASA
I'm fairly sure it's $2 first min/0.45 per min after.  You can run up quite a
bill with it, true.
