#2 This is bad.

FIXES FROM RECONNAISSANCE AIRCRAFT AND SATELLITE INDICATE THAT THE
MOTION HAS BEEN MORE NORTHWESTWARD THAN WEST-NORTHWESTWARD. THE
MID-TROPOSPHERIC RIDGE TO THE NORTH OF DENNIS IS APPARENTLY WEAKER
THAN EARLIER PREDICTED. THIS MAY IN PART BE A RESULT OF ADDITIONAL
STEERING FLOW INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM THE NOAA G-IV JET
SURVEILLANCE MISSION LAST NIGHT. CONSEQUENTLY...SOME OF THE TRACK
GUIDANCE...IN PARTICULAR THE GFDL AND GFS MODELS...HAVE SHIFTED TO
THE RIGHT OF THEIR EARLIER SOLUTIONS. THIS NECESSITATES AN
EASTWARD ADJUSTMENT OF THE OFFICIAL TRACK. ADDITIONALLY...THE
AIRCRAFT DATA SHOW THAT DENNIS HAS STRENGTHENED AND THAT THE WIND
FIELD HAS EXPANDED...ESPECIALLY TO THE NORTHEAST. THE NEW TRACK
AND WIND FIELD FORECAST REQUIRES THE ISSUANCE OF WATCHES FOR
EXTREME SOUTHERN FLORIDA AT THIS TIME.

#7 Phil - no sweat - we just got tangled up. I actually agree with you on NASA - they squandered my childhood dreams and the good will of 2 generations. Kills me. And I agree the private sector will do a better job, if left to pure entrepreneurial capitalism - and not regulated to ruin. And our kids? Sheesh. They start out "perfect" - with some measure of potential. Then we (society) fill 'em up with [insert % here] bullshit. My relief at how cool my kid turned out is beyond palpable - it can walk and talk, lol! We're both actually concerned and have hard experience to back up our views. I know you're as sincere as I am about such truly future-shaping concerns. I'm cool and happy and know you know your stuff. The crosstalk was on high in that thread, lol! A nick in the Cat-5, I bet.
