	I have friends who recently moved to a site in the desert (no
power, water delivered by truck) north of Boron, CA.  They aren't
particularly interested in the space program, so they weren't aware of
the last shuttle mission, until one day they heard a double boom,
looked up, and saw Discovery making a U-turn more-or-less above their
property.

	I now know where I may be going to "observe" some of the DoD
Shuttle landings this summer.
