On the subject of sonic boom..

Surely every time the space shuttle comes in to land the locals of Florida are subjected to a double sonic boom. I remember hour building out in Titusville a few years back when one returned from a galaxy beyond... NEARLY SHAT MYSELF!!!! Thought I was back in Northern Ireland.

So what's the difference? If the space shuttle had been built in any other part of the world would it be allowed?

[By the way there could be a health link cos the chickens in Florida aren't producing milk, the cows wont lay eggs, but I think the citrus groves are unharmed!]
