An interesting quote from the February/March issue of "Air & Space" magazine.

"The Rescue of Salyut 7", pg 57.
Cosmonaut Dzhanibekov on docking with Salyut 7 while the station was 'dead'.

	"Docking is like driving a seven-ton truck with fragile freight
	 on an icy road into a narrow gate at the end of this road."

Rather appropriate, eh?
