[ODE] saving internal joint state

[Martin C. Martin]

That's all right, I don't think anything from Ames every makes it near 
real life anyway...  ;)

Just kidding, but seriously, I don't think the Ames Research Center 
produces flight articles, does it?

And certainly not ones that only simulate rovers.
