I have found that one of the best tributes I've seen/heard is the piece of music that Ron McNair was working on with Jean-Michel Jarre. Ron was a saxophonist, and had worked on a piece of music that he would play in orbit while it was recorded on the ground. After the disaster, Jarre reworked the piece as "Ron's Theme" and included it on his album "Rendezvous" that was subsequently performed in that huge gig in Houston's downtown. I always get a lump in my throat when I listen to that piece of music. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul A.
