Wagga and Steve,

Thank you for posting the videos of Discovery's last flight. I really enjoyed watching them. I just checked out NASA TV's website and saw a message saying NASA really needs people's help (meaning donations). I would really hate to see space exploration end or the pace to slow because the economy is in such a mess. Knowing the USA is exploring space has been a part of my life as far back as I can remember...sometime in my grade school years. Our government has squandered too many tax dollars on unimportant things over the last 50 years and maybe longer. Funding NASA, I believe, is one of the highest and best uses for our tax dollars. I know we all have benefited from what scientists have learned from exploring space. I can't name all the new inventions or innovations that have come from space exploration but I know there have been many. Maybe some of you can list a few.
