Astro-stalker Nowak to receive NASA medal
2007 NASA Honor Awards Ceremony at JSC

"The JSC community is invited to attend the 2007 NASA Honor Awards Ceremony on Tuesday, June 5, 2007, at 1:00 p.m. in the Teague Auditorium. This annual ceremony recognizes distinguished individuals and groups from across JSC and the surrounding area for their outstanding contributions to the Nation's space program."

"NASA SPACE FLIGHT MEDAL ... Lisa M. Nowak "

NASA will also award Marsha Ivins its highest civilian medal. Remembered by many as "the nastiest woman I ever met", astronaut Ivins leaves an indelible impression wherever she goes.

1. She may have
given the nation's space program "outstanding contributions." I do recall however, many a Sailor having a retirement award either downgraded or withdrawn altogether for actions they took outside their job scope towards the ends of their careers. I do not begrudge her the medal, but others who receive it may feel slighted.

2. Crap... maybe I'll burn my Space Act Award in protest...
but then again, not... it was given to me by Al Gore.
