Doing it every day would be no great problem.
BUT the Blick factor * says that I should keep it to the level where I 
feel there's a degree of relevance or liable to be overwhelming 
interest. I don't think Columbine would have made it onto the list by 
itself, tragic though it was. Mr Schickelgruber alone wouldn't have. 
Apollo 16 was the clincher because of the techo bent and as many here, 
while not necessarily especially interested in space per se, do have 
the engineers spill over interest in multi disciplinary technology.

* It's like the Lathrop factor but in this case it operates on 
experienced OT posters rather than innocent newbies.
