I think Michelle and myself will be able to make it.
As an interesting note, that is the day Lunar Prospector is going to crash into the moon in hopes of kicking up water ice. If all goes well, telescopes on Earth will detect the presence of the ice, proving its existence. Lunar Prospector has shown that there is hydrogen in decent amounts in polar craters, but no one knows if it is in the form of water ice. If so, it could make any possible lunar base that much easier, and would probably stimulate interest in returning to the moon. All very Good Things.
Anyone interested in writting a song for the occasion? A bit hard, given the outcome is unknown, I realize. :)
