Re: [sarex] Mir radio equip.

[Jeff Francis <jfrancis@xxxxxxxx>]

  I expect several million (make that tens of millions) of $$$ in gear
will be left to burn up.  It would probably cost considerably more to
bring it home than to just write it off and let it go, especially
given the situation they're in now.  Besides, if the current (and
possibly last) crew brings a lot of gear back down with them when they
come home next month, it'll just have to be hauled back up again
if/when the Russians come up with enough cash to send another crew up.
