I have hundreds of channels, but I can't think of any place but CNN or MSNBC to check. If it's a go, I'l like to see it!

3. NASA has its own channel
So maybe you have it. It's like the C-Span of space launches from what I heard from a friend. No background chatter from talking heads. Wish we had it!

5. I'm Going to Try to See it Live
from northern Virginia. A news report on the radio a few seconds ago said it might be visible as far north as New York.

8. You might! When I lived in Tampa, we went to 2 launches (daytime)
over at Cocoa Beach but were able to see most of them after they got a few miles high from home. I have snapshots of the Challenger blowing up taken from my back yard. :-(

both just said they will cut in live in about 40 minutes if it's a go. Personally I'll go with CNN. :) Peace.
