I wonder, does this mean they consider people with peanut allergies to be bad luck? And then they don't hire them?

Damn, that communication window for Odyssey is small.  Also, wow, I didn't realize Odyssey was that old of a satellite.

The ESA's Mars Express and NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter are also both in place to relay telemetry to Odyssey, which will then transmit to Earth. The latter will be almost directly over Curiosity during touchdown.

I had PB&J for dinner.

Also, if we can count rum as peanuts, I'll go pour myself a glass of peanuts.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.
