..if we actually have any girls on the forum...

well, there's some old women here :)

I've introduced SSM to a bunch of chaps at BAE Systems, they where impressed. I have a suspicion that a forum member is one ;)

"Old women"? We did have inquiries from "old women" - actually from the military - most of them Air Force officers (pilots?). I don't know if they purchased SSM2007 or not, but  they seemed knowledgeable on the subject.

So I wouldn't be surprised if we have some reps of the "other gender" as customers, though I am not sure if they are in the forum.

I wonder how many other people who have purchased SSM07, have direct/indirect links to the Shuttle/NASA.

Speaking of links with NASA, and going off topic, have you considered a Boxed Retail version (same copy protection) where it can be sold at NASA Centers like KSC visitors complex? They currently have something, but I don't think it's a simulator like SSM07. ;)

Forgive me for mentioning this again, but......wouldn't NASA have a database of high resolution Earth textures? If so, I wonder if close links with them could be a cost effective means of obtaining this kind of data....
