I know, it's just venting at this point; last post for the day I promise.

The planetarium was one of my favorite field trips as a kid.  It was like magic to see the sky inside, to see time speeded up or run backwards so we could watch the long term movements of the planets and stars, see what Kepler and Copernicus saw.  That giant robotic death-insect in the middle was the projector, and it didn't look like something you could pick up cheap.  But it introduced me and tens of thousands of other kids a year to astronomy and space science.

McCain can stop harshing on the planetarium just anytime.
