You can air-cool even if the air is a little thin, but 3psi isn't a little
thin, it's a lot thin. Nobody air-cools at 100,000ft; there's hardly any
air left at that altitude. (Nobody much flies at 100,000ft either; half
that is a more typical ceiling, and a lot of military avionics is not
air-cooled.)
>ALSO in apollo were EVA's part of the planned mission?
Yes, both on early flights for testing, and on the later lunar missions
for recovery of film canisters from the SM survey-equipment bay. Not to
mention a zillion contingency procedures that required that electronics
continue to function despite EVAs or pressure loss for other reasons.

Until recently, there was a set of email bridges between all 4 of the
major campaigns and a set of alt.politics.canditate groups. The Clinton
group is in transition :-) to a more permanent setup. It is my
understanding that the Clinton an Bush campaigns answered 1500+
questions each. In addition, all 3 of biggest candidates had some kind
of presence on Prodigy, with 250k+ messages generated.
Maybe someday there will be an bill@saxiphone.whitehouse.executive.gov
mail address.......
