way to go

i just watched a jet blue airbus with the forward nosegear rotated 90 degrees make a picture perfect landing on the tube. 149 hearty sighs of relief from inside that airplane. training and skill, with a healthy dose of luck, brought that plane down to a beautiful landing. well, beautiful as opposed to crashing and flaming on the runway.

and a final aside as i go back to getting my bookshelves squared away: hurricane Rita: houston, we have a problem.
