You can blow out a candle
But you can't blow out a fire
Once the flames begin to catch
The wind will blow it higher
-Peter Gabriel, "Biko"

Lest we forget those who died trying
to save the human race from extinction:

Rick D. Husband, William C. McCool, Michael P. Anderson,
Ilan Ramon, Kalpana Chawla, David M. Brown, Laurel Clark

Michael J. Smith, Dick Scobee, Ronald McNair, Ellison Onizuka,
Christa McAuliffe, Gregory Jarvis, Judith Resnik

Virgil "Gus" Grissom, Edward H. White, Roger B. Chaffee

...and no one is quite sure how many Russian cosmonauts,
but they belong here too.
