Bryant, I follow you ! But it DID take a very big ego to even attempt this project. Remember his plane with the girl in it that went around the world? There was a big show of GUTS! And according to a news report of an hour ago, the present craft DID MAKE IT TO HIS DESIRED HEIGHT. I hope there is more on the 10 o clock news tonight about this. What I wish to know is he at the 63 miles level he worked for? Lets see and wait. Watch Channel 3, KCRA Sacramento California.

Verycool that you see an aircraft with an "N" number in space! However, Paul G. Allen probably has almost as much $$$ as the Government. He also must have a pretty big ego with his name plastered over everything photograph-able you saw...
