Thanks Steve but unfortunately no, we're flying in for the show. We do hope to bring it out in the future. A friend of ours had his 69 there 2 years ago and he couldn't say enough good things about the show and the area in general so we're looking forward to it.

Oh pshaw - not even NASA can spell correctly, and many at NASA hold masters and doctorates!

When they rolled out the Space Shuttle Endeavour they hung a huge sign near the launch pad that read "Go Endeavor!". It should have been spelled "Endeavour" since NASA named that shuttle after the 18th century ship "HM Bark Endeavour" commanded by explorer James Cook.

I can understand that to a certain extent: Webster's vs Oxford. I was brought up using the Oxford versions of labor (labour), favorite (favourite), neighbor (neighbour), etc.
