Choogle, I totally agree with you, but it wasn’t that you were at the end of the day. My virtual queue ticket number was 73, and I saw Lovell at about 1045 on Saturday. Now, both myself and my wife had gold passes, so technically were able to have two "meets" with him but, except for queuing we were with him for a total of 30 seconds before being ushered out. I was left feeling deflated and slightly sorry for spending the money, don’t get me wrong, I do have a personalised signature of Lovell but its not worth it. I can’t help but get that feeling whenever I look at it! I even asked for the mission to be Apollo 8, and that was written on the card, but went unheeded. I stumped up the extra for a professional photo, but couldn’t help but feel sorry for Haise, getting told to move away all the time for single photos. I think a one price suits all approach would have been better, £25 for one £45 for both, smells distinctly like greed to me! (And I had to leave a description of myself with the photographer so he can post my photo) I did hear that some moneys collected were for charity? Can one of the organisers confirm this? Best thing of the day for me? McCandless and Worden, excellent photo's and had time for a chat with no pressure. I do appreciate that to organise a day like this is not easy, and I extend a big thank you to all who made it happen, including the hotel staff.
