Astronaut sends first tweet from space!

Astronaut T.J. Creamer is tweeting from space and taking questions. He lists his address as: ÜT: 29.585495,-95.107821 (what, no Star Date on these tweets?)

What a waste of Billions and Billions of dollars!

Oh, I forgot, they are NOT REALLY in space; just on a soundstage in Houston.

Really cant disagree, can't really say that its such a big technical breakthrough, even if they are in space, all that should mean is they get a clearer signal, after all, they are a hell of a lot closer to the satellites haha.

Does it matter where the tweet comes from?
I bet when Cheetahs race and one of them cheats, the other one goes "Man, you're such a Cheetah!" and they laugh & eat a zebra or whatever.
