It belongs to a man whom we all know and who has done a tremendous service to the world by bringing the beauty and uniqueness of the life in the world's oceans into our living rooms. Yah I'm talking about Jaques Yves Cousteau, and I think it would be a good thing if we named the new shuttle the "Calypso". -Dennis Vadura P.S> And if anyone out there knows a school teacher with a bunch of kids that are keen to try and submit a name then please give them this one. They or anyone else is free to use this suggestion as they see fit. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dennis Vadura, Computer Science Dept., UUCP,BITNET: dvadura@water University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Ont.
