What's In A Name?


In one more riff on the space tourist theme, Jay Zilber notes:

A SPLENDID DICKENSIAN NAME: Mark Shuttleworth, 27, is set to become the second "space tourist" to fly to the station, arriving in a Russian Soyuz rocket next April.

Yes, but the really ironic thing is that he's not allowed to go on the Shuttle.
