The first person to respond will then announce a "Topic" for discussion*. It can be as unclear, ambiguous and vague as you'd like it. Being of interest to the masses is a plus! Being informative is not necessary.


Remember the "Topic" you choose can be in any form. One or several words or phrase form. Please highlight your choice of topic in some manner.

* No politics or other ugly topics please.


Thanks to all for your contributions, large or small!

When I was a little kid, we used to play a game called "Button, button, who's got the button?"

Button, button, who's got the button? - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Another sweet childhood memory.

No buttons pushed.. The entire launch is done by computers.. millions of calculations per second.. if something is off a human over rides based on parameters set.. 800,000 gallons of water pours on the launch pad.. not cooling but for sound suppression so the tiles don't get shaken off.. when the vehicle passes the top of the launch pad it's at 300 mph.. and handed off to Houston. The sound.. shock wave is so great it makes chain link fence sing..
