My thoughts exactly. Feels like a couple years ago only.

Then again, Challenger feels like about 10 years ago only.

Once again...I remember CBS's Saturday Morning Show and Dan Rather sitting next to the Russ Mitchell when the guy called stating he had a piece of the Columbia. The look on Rather's face when it became apparent as a hoax was something I'll never forget.

The Israeli was a member of the F-16's who took part in the Iraqi nuclear facility bombing if I remember right.
