    Hi All:
    
    We just had a great wake up call at about 05:07 PDT (12:07 UTC). I live in
    Ventura County, California about half way between Los Angeles and Santa
    Barbara.
    
    I had just gotten up and heard on the radio that the Shuttle was going into
    Edwards. It was still dark outside. As I walked into my home office I heard
    a loud BOOM-BOOM that shook the house. The window was partially open and I
    saw the curtain move. Dogs in the neighborhood started barking and one of my
    neighbors walked outside, apparently wondering what the explosion was.
    
    I was great.
    
    Regards,
    
    Brian Webb
