:Recently seen in "Air&Space", February/March 1990 (reprinted w/o permission):

:1981 March 19

[account of nitrogen suffocation of technicians (1 dead, 4 injured)]

:I find this odd, because I kept a VERY good watch for news regarding the
:space program, and I NEVER saw or heard anything about this until now.

:Was there nothing reported in the regular news services?

I saw it on the evening news and read about it in the Los Angeles
Times.

It was also in Aviation Week and Flight International, but those aren't
_regular_ news services.  

The regular news service stories were quite short and undetailed, but
AvLeak and Flight were quite informative.
