Would you call that Space Kill?

A vulture hit the Space Shuttle during liftoff testing last year. Apparently, the poor bird bonked into the side of the orbiter and then fell into the exhuat flames. Nasa is now making an effort to rid the area of vultures.

You would think the vulture would have been bothered by all the noise and smoke and fumes. Instead, that vulture obviously thought the shuttle was a sexy beast.

FJ, you need to quit projecting your feelings on the space shuttle onto poor birds.

Well what's the fun in that?

Reading

I just finshed Codelia's Honor by Lois McMaster Bujold which is the first book of the Vorkosigan Saga.
Very good book, but the Sci-Fi bits are really secondary to the story.

Right now I'm reading The Lost Fleet Series by John Hemry/Jack Campbell It's sorta Honor Harrington but not really, though Honor Harrington even goes downhill in the later novels.
