    If the Shuttle comes down on the second opportunity it will pass almost
    right over Hurricane Dean. I lost my little table of altitudes but I think
    it is about 150,000ft at that range. Anyone know what the altitude is over
    the Yucatan? Cloud tops could be half way up to it. I wonder if there are
    any changes to the atmosphere at 150K ft? I imagine everyone on the ground
    will be a little too busy to look for it, and cloudy.
