Sometimes, being on the maintenance crew is a really good job -- you have access to the roof. They apparently had a group meeting after the shuttle's passing.
For those of us on the Mall, we weren't sure if there'd be a fourth pass or not. The web site still said the shuttle was over the DC area. It wasn't until we started to seeing a number of commercial jets taking off -- they had been held during the fly-overs -- that some of us figured it was time to go. Still, others hung around just in case. |
