I posted the original note.  It was very short, consisting of three eulogies
international figures/groups had made on the Challenger 7.  I also inserted a
one line editorial comment, calling these groups "slime".  I will call anyone
slime who refers to the dead astronauts as "war criminals" and expresses
"happiness" over their deaths and the destruction of the orbiter (as did the
communist guerrillas in El Salvador).  I stand behind my position, despite your
simplistic charges.
