20 years? blimey!

wow! I can't believe it's been 20 years either.

It brought an end to my job at Starnav, a company that was relying on the GPS satelites that the Shuttles were supposed to place into orbit.

Even I can remember that event like it was yesterday.

I remember it took about thirty seconds for jokes about letting the woman drive came out.

yep does seem like yesterday. Lets face it we are becoming our parents lol
