With Titan IV being out of service, it's funny they haven't melted them

I'm still annoyed that they couldn't find some space use for all the
Titan I's and just scrapped them.
Just reread the first comment. �There was nothing on the T-II's that
was used for the T-IV's.
Aside from the pad issues preventing use of the decommissioned T-I's,
I never found a reason why there wasn't an Titan-I SLV. � I guess
Atlas had all the missions covered.
if there are no pads for he remaining boosters why havent most of them
been scrapped? or does the air force still have a launch pad for them
somewhere like vandenberg?
although whats the problem with launching out of a silo? was recently
in the one at tuscon, it gave awesome access to the booster and
payload.
so why couldnt they have been silo launched?
