It&apos;s been two days since we&apos;ve heard from &quot;Spirit&quot;, other than a quick &quot;hello&quot; yesterday.  But when we last had significant news from Mars, the rover was contemplating a rock named &quot;Adirondack&quot; by NASA.  The name has this region&apos;s tourism officials pumped up.
