Although its nice to know where the shuttle is at the moment, we all 
know where its going to be in a few days - i.e right next to the ISS.

So instead of going mad at updating your STS114 keps every time a new 
set comes out, just concentrate on the ISS keps. as the odds are that 
its orbit will be a bit more consistent.

If you watch NASA TV, then you'll see regular updates of the STS114 
position.  I've had NASA TV on my office system, my laptop and PDA more 
or less continuously..
