Gotta love it

Jason posted something like this last week

Engineers had hoped the rover would travel 164 feet (50 meters) on its way to a crater known as “Bonneville,” to examine rocks and soil for evidence of past liquid water on the Red Planet, mission manager Jim Erickson said.

Heads up,
Clicked on that link, and Spy Bot Search and Destroy prompted me, that I was going to download Ave A, Inc, and that it was a known threat (i.e. Spy ware). of course I said no, but for those that don't have spyware protection BEWARE

It'* an MSNBC site, dude. Not a virus factory. Try Ad-Aware instead. It has a lot fewer false alarms.

Wouldnt it be a little funny if they found a "burried" crater underneath that but much smaller. And they named it Civic........

Just because it'* MSNBC, doesn't mean they don't want to silently install software to monitor which sites you visit, and keep track of marketing information..
