I have no problem going on record with this and probably have gone on record with this before, there aren't that many people who I respect. There just aren't.
I have always been free with my love - it is my nature. I am easily captivated by men and they have always been attracted to me.
After the loss of Columbia a couple of years ago, I think we were reminded of the risk. All of us, though, have always known that the Space Shuttle is a very risky vehicle, much more risky than even flying airplanes in combat.
