AA Pays up!

A beautiful jump. In some ways I'm still more impressed by Kittinger's effort of 52 years. For that, the equipment was not nearly as fine as available to Baumgartner, and it was physically a much rawer experience. Also, Felix had the reassurance that it had been done before, and that the jumper had made it. But, hey, what could be more apt as symbol of the death of the Space program than the image of Man Falling to Earth?

Yes, remarkable, and also remarkable how incremental the advance was yesterday.
Still more remarkable is your steadfastness in refusing to Pay Up.

I smell a big fat commie rat...

Oh, I have paid up. Now you only owe me 300 bottles of fine port, down from the heady days of 666 bottles of fine port.
