hi Alan.. noticed you didn't link to the big news of the day (I don't see it being covered in any traditional media either). ...
SpaceX launched the first ever personally/privately funded rocket all the way to orbit.

[ALAN ADDS: Hi, Bilal, I addressed the SpaceX launch in another item. (I'm not *just* a blogger, you know):]

oh wow. Alan thanks. You know I only check cosmiclog (among my 5 sites I check daily). I plum forgot you actually do the traditional news as well for MSNBC (which I normally don't check).

sorry about that. I will update my bookmarks.
