	I agree. renaming the group net.challenger is the least we can
do to honor the crew and the program.  A side note: I heard on the news
(CNN) this morning that 2 different groups of people have already
started fund raising drives to get money towards replacing Challenger.
I don't have the addresses with me, but will try to post tomorrow or
Monday.  The public may not be able to raise the full 1.5 billion needed
to replace Challenger, but even if we could raise 100 to 200 million, 
Congress would at least be backed more into a corner to provide the 
remainder.
