...grew up with cows and horses--it was pretty strange. My high school had 17 people in our graduating class. Coming to Harvard, it was just sheer size difference. I had never met a total stranger in my life until I came to Harvard. Or, it would be like, OK, my grandfather knows your grandfather. It's like seven degrees of separation, Kevin Bacon, but it's really like two degrees of Kevin Bacon. I guess I was characterized as a jock in high school.

NASA has all but given the last rites to its latest probe now that Mars Polar Lander has for the fourth straight day obstinately refused to phone home. Couple that with the failure three months ago of its sister ship, the Mars Climate Orbiter, and you could forgive space agency officials for feeling more than a little...
