I think they should. It's better than most of the junk that's on TV these days.

That was *fabulous* - thank you! That's the stuff I grew up on - life was so Bradbury back then. And the landings! Smash into the middle of the ocean, with ships standing by and the whole world waiting, and watching live while SEALS swim out to this huge round landing module and let the astronauts out. Ahhh ... the days of heroes. I was gonna be a SEAL ... :lol:

Hear hear!

The shuttle looks 'cool', but it doesn't really go anywhere much. :(
