Well, I did mention NASA also. But I feel compelled to mention here that
when I was working on their groundstation (STGT) I was told that there
were some sattelites that it controlled whose function was classified. I
wouldn't be too shocked if some of them couldn't do something a bit
natier than just fall on you.

But perhaps I've just been watching Real Genius too much. Anyone for
some popcorn? :-)
