WASHINGTON - Just days after the shuttle Columbia disaster, a NASA employee at headquarters proposed scrubbing the agency's safety office Web site to remove outdated or wrong information that could become "chum in the water to reporters and congressmen."

"We wouldn't be sucker punched by someone based on something we have posted," employee Wilson Harkins wrote in an e-mail released this week by NASA.

NASA said Thursday that 18 routine documents were added to the Web site since the accident and none was removed. Spokeswoman Melissa Motichek said Harkins was trying to make sure the site was accurate and up-to-date.

You know, the one with, um, lots of crappy flash movies, and IE only specific crap. That site.
