Okay. The Discovery launch has been postponed yet again. Until Tuesday.

This makes it hard on a spaceflight fan. It truly does.

I spoke of smaller annoyances than that. Or perhaps not so small, per Heather Mallick's latest column at CBC Web News. She comments on an organization whose members' thinking on a number of subjects truly vexes me...which I will leave to her to name.

Also on the annoyance list of the day...well, more like a concern. Here's an opinion piece on the recent federal heritage committee report re: media concentration and the state of the CBC.

But at least this time I didn't drive all the way there to watch it not launch. Which doesn't necessarily help you, but cheers me a little...

I can understand that.

I just wish we could get on with getting this show back on the road again.

One of our astronauts, Julie Payette, is serving as one of the three shifts of CapComs (Capsule Communicators) this go-round, according to the Ottawa Citizen, so there's a bit of national interest here. :-)
