Don't you want to support that? Don't you want them to be able to experience some of the same joy you did? And imagine, if one of those kids does want to join NASA and even possibly become an astronaut, aren't you ok with a portion of that fee going to help that kid achieve that goal? I get that no one wants to be TOLD they must support something, but it sounds like you already support those things. You don't have to if you don't want. You can buy it in the resale market if you want and support some giant online-only bullion huckster instead. Your choice.[/QUOTE]
