I have resently started to collect everything astronaut, knew what I wanted in advance, went there and got it. The experience was everything I expected, Dave Scott was and absolute gentleman and when I needed help the crew and hotel staff were there for me - eventually. As far as guests go any astronaut or war veteran would be high calibre in my opinion.
I have recently renewed my interest in all things Astronaut also; I've been inspired by the July 2009 40th anniversary celebrations of Apollo 11. There are only 9 moonwalkers left in this solar system and any opportunity to meet and greet one is to be cherished.
How did Mr. Scott look? Did he answer any questions or give any talks? I just finished reading his book "Two Sides of the Moon" and it was marvelous. Dave Scott was an early space ambassador to the Soviets' space program
.
I hope the moonwalking astronauts live long enough to witness man return to the moon ( US, China, whoever).
