Amen to nix to guitars in space and, by the way, to cremaspaceatoriums.

Guitars in space sounds like a high school science fair project.  If the
idea is to provide a forum for discussing space technology issues, this 
is not one of them. It's a nit that's been fairly well picked by now.

Discussions of ashes in space will be as shortly remembered as discussions of
the dynamics of hula hoops.

Concur with the idea of "INFO-SPACE-JUNK" (sorta reminds you of the defunct
TV series QUARK, doesn't it?), but Ron's alternative is "INFO-NASA". That
would be a fairly interesting and highly patronized bboard, I'm sure. But
INFO-NASA is not exactly the same as INFO-SPACE. Nor is INFO-DOD-SPACE the
same, but you can't talk about space in a vacuum (sorry). It's NASA and it's
DOD and it's commercial space too. 

That's what I think (and thought before I signed on) SPACE-ENTHUSIASTS
should be.

Bull (Navy Space Planner) (Views probably not exactly those of the management,
but pretty close I'd reckon.)
