This is meant mainly for those who saw Saturday's reentry from near St. George. I've been very troubled that I was celebrating as I watched Columbia while those on board knew they were about to die. An unsolicited email from another of our group confirmed I was not the only one feeling this way. So it came as some comfort a few minutes ago when I received word from NASA indicating the crew was unaware of their situation until after Columbia had disappeared from our line of sight. Patrick
