The Gift Shops were the absolute *worst* part of my KSC visit.


There's the usual crap for the seven-year-olds (and they sell tons of
it, these folks aren't stupid), especially in the 'downstairs' area,
but I think the KSC "Gift Gantry" has a very nice selection of
space-related books and videos. Far superior to the local Waldenbooks
or Barnes & Noble. It is the only place in 10 years that I've seen
Jenkins' book actually in stock, for example. I was hoping they'd have
"Hypersonic" but they didn't, so I ordered it through Amazon.

They had Jenkins when I was there, too. I've been looking for a copy
for a while, but I didn't want to have to pack that thing in my luggage
for the trip home. I should check if they would ship it to me. TIme to
check their website. Thanks for reminding me about that.
