Lisa -- to answer your queston from the now closed marathon OT thread, we have a completely separate squadron dedicated to weather. I'm interested in it, but that's about it. WX can affect comm, but with the way it's done now, it's less of a concern. But here's a completely worthless piece of comm trivia: At certain times of the year, the sun can get behind our satellites for a few minutes. Naturally those times are classifed, it basically makes the ground terminals completely deaf for a short time. Yeah, we have to plan for those -- they're called "Solar Conjunctions". A real PITA for SatComm'ers. 
EDIT: And welcome back Cookie!! Great pics!!

Scott, that looks like an awesome vacation. I must have missed it, but where did you guys go...reminds me a lot of Emerald Isle, NC...but I guess a lot of beach places look similar too.
Rick, if you're reading this, I call dibbs on some Crawfish next year. I lub me suh crawfish, buh we ain got nun rond heya.
I was really hoping that other OT thread would make it to 1000 posts. Oh well, I guess we can see how long this one runs. I don't know if there are loose 'rules' surrounding the length of the OT threads or not though.

Good lookin' crew Scott,
Our whole family went down to Pigeon Forge for the weekend. 16 of us in one cabin
. We had a good time though. I saw Justin (jdecker88) for about 2 seconds. I wasn't sure that it was him until we got home.
