So how are they going to know if Mir hits the target? Is someone going to be close by watching?

I'll make a wild guess (one of my wildest at that) and say that the Mir will miss the bull's eye. Mark my words.

In the very likely even that I am wrong, I will galady mail my free taco coupon to anyone here on this board.

Brooks,

good point. Who is going to be sitting out in the middle of the south pacific to verify the accuracy? I've been to the south pacific and although the "scenery" is wonderful , floating around in the middle of it waiting on a Russian space station to take the plunge doesn't sound like much fun to me.

Publicity stunt....oh sorry....creative marketing.

Nah, I use my video camera for races.

I keep a small crew of cameramen aside just for space stations that crash into earth. I think I'll send them, and let CNN borrow the footage they get. Its supposed to crash Friday, but thats when I might race a really confident 99-01 Mustang GT, and an LS1 Trans Am.

Thats something I have to be at in person. I cannot be halfway around the world watching Russian scientists play pin the Mir on the bullseye in the middle of the Pacific.

I thought you would have figured that out. Its always fun posting here with you.

That is a slight possibilty. Might make a move for Durango, Colorado late this summer, it all depends on the bottom line.

Heck I drove from Greenville, SC. to Fort Collins in 21 hours. Where is WFC4 at this year?
