Re: Space Shuttle Columbia
Big article in our paper The Baltimore Sun this morning about how David Brown's family is donating items, such as flight helmets and signed lithographs for auction, with all proceeds going to FIRST. His brother is quoted as saying "our family collectively decided to continue David's desire to support charities he expressed admiration for while he was an astronaut. Inspiring young minds to pursue careers in science and medicine was one of his personal goals while an astronaut."

What a wonderful gesture from this amazing family.
