The Web Is Dead. Long Live the Internet

While we focus on Information Technology updates in this blogpost, here's a very rare and cool item: a space-theme cover, with a Technology Day Station pictorial postmark from 2006.

I never met an extraterrestrial [ :) ], but I did meet people who have been in Cosmos.

First I met cosmonaut Dumitru "Dorin" Prunariu (Romania). My mother is his former biology teacher in elementary school.

Then I met astronaut Henry "Hank" Hartsfield Jr. (USA)

We shook hands and he autographed this space cover for me (COSMOS3b, in my photobucket.com album "dorincard").
