There's a company here in Seattle that's taking reservations for
citizens who (yes even in the wake of last week's tragedy) wish to
be Shuttle passengers. Brace yourselves, though...it's 50,000.00$ a
crack...some person called up the morning of the crash, and ordered
five reservations. Mabye it stirred up some sort of resolve.
