Patrick:

Yeah, I read it too.  No much there.  It was strange to find it hidden
among the high-tech articles. It wasn't even on the tech section on the web
site!  I had to search specifically by the title to find it.

She did get some nice drawings from the professor at USC.  At least that
was different.

BTW, Check out the Savvy Traveler's discussion about space tourism.  It
aired on May 6.  David Ashford was prominently featured.

Timothy Ferris has a nice intro to space tourism that was published in
November 28, 1999 in the New York Times.  What was astonishing was the many
paintings by Robert McCall that were included.  The first one should be of
great interest, because it shows a grand swimming pool in an orbiting
resort hotel.  I have never seen it before.
