Default ISS activity
The ISS has been really active since the tourist rode up there on the Russian rocket. I think he is from Hungary but speaks pretty good English.

I don't think he has anything to do but play radio. Voice, packet, and slow scan tv.

Tune into 145.800

Yeah, I heard him today really talking it up. Sounded like he was doing a Q&A session.

That 'space tourist' is actually one of the inventors of Office, and although he's a roma (like me), he's very much a Hungarian-American. Here's the article on Charles Simonyi...

Just wish I had his money, hi
