Wait, so with more physical therapy, you may be able to do things not in a wheelchair?

Well i can walk with leg braces and a walker but they arent confortable or practicle for regular use. The more i build up the leg strength the more ill beable to walk though. But its a slow process.

Well it is good that you will eventually be able to walk. Adult ASA sounds like it could be in your future. It is a slow process, but I'm sure you can do it.

I agree, it sounds like you have a very good shot at going again! I think I remember someone in a wheelchair while I was there, but I could be wrong.

Well some Space Camp is better than no Space Camp. Plus you could impart your crazy high amount of space knowledge on others at camp.

This sunday I am going to USSCR because they are going to celebrate the 100th year of the first flight. I hope to see some of the people I met there last winter.

Well I have outsmarted counselors on a few different occassions. I just think it would be cool for a group of us to challenge them in a spacebowl. The only problem is that they are always dealing with space and are thinking about it every waking moment of their life. But, then again, aren't we?

Well as part of my job i make sure to keep up with space current events as well as being knowledgeable about space history. And believe me i've noticed many of the counselors don't know near as much about space exploration especially history as you might think.

I have talked to some counselors that say they just learn what they have to for the program they are a counselor for and beyond that they don't know much more. I have only outsmarted my counselor on a few occassions though.

I still think we could outsmart the counselors in space bowl.

I think if we ever get to go to camp together we should challenge them.

I would take them on no problem. I just need to brush up on Mercury and Gemini and not get older counselors like Brent and Smiley against me and I would be fine. They know all kinds of stuff that I don't know.

Well i would beable to answer any of the history questions they ussualy ask anyway so we'd make a good team.

I am good at all those obscure random questions that make no sense. I got the question right that asked who does the intro for A Time for Courage. Yeah JAN DAVIS OF COURSE!!!

I've never heard that question before. But like i said history is more my specialty.

I'm pretty good with the program history questions. I think I wiped out one of the history categories.
