Not that I'm a uncaring or unfeeling person, but I personally would
rather see net.columbia renamed to net.space.shuttle.  Once the 
emotional intensity of last week's disaster subsides, net.challenger
would present the same challenge to novices to figure out what its
about as net.columbia.

Given that we've been trying to organize the net a bit in the past
year, net.space.shuttle makes a lot of sense.  

And in order to avoid any more of this "that sounds like a great 
idea" type of postings, I volunteer to accept your votes on the 
subject.  Please reply to me BY MAIL with one of the following:

	( )  Let's not rename net.columbia.

	( )  Let's rename net.columbia to net.challenger.

	( )  Let's rename net.columbia to net.space.shuttle.

	( )  Let's rename net.columbia to net.______________.
