 What's the Spaceflight Cafe? Posted on: Sat Jun 12, 2004 5:44 pmSome X PRIZE messageboard members have been asking for a forum where they can go to chat off-topic, and here it is.
The Spaceflight Cafe is designed to host discussions about topics that don't really match any of the other forums. Come here to talk about nuclear fusion, Cassini flying to Saturn, the latest issue of Popular Science, or whatever crosses your mind. The moderators will also use the Spaceflight Cafe as a place to deposit off-topic postings that were originally in other forums.

Posted on: Mon Jun 14, 2004 2:29 pm Hot and steaming please ... actually, I've got a nice BIG cup here on my desk. Us writers rely on monocaffeine propellant.
 Keeps us pumping right up into LEO.

Posted on: Mon Jun 14, 2004 2:32 pm Careful Ralph, having lived in both the US and Europe I've found that in general Europeans like their coffee pretty strong. Remember the movie "Bagdad Cafe"? Don't drink it all at once, or you'll be up at GEO in no time.

The moral of the above: if you're going to make an off-topic post, it'd better be funny. That reminds me... A man walked into a bar.

I suppose you heard the one about the dyslexic pimp who opened a warehouse? (p.s. I reckon this is the only thread where jokes should be posted, if at all.)_________________ It was like that when I found it. Honest. |

A fitft message is already good for "Troposphere". 10 seems to mean "Stratosphere" 20 "Mesophere" 50 "Thermosphere" 100 "Suborbital" 200 ?? other ?? |
