I got a request for donation today from Edward G. Gibson, representing
the "American Space Foundation".  Enclosed was an "Official NASA
Photograph" (very poor quality print - *not* a photographic print) of
one of the Shuttles taking off.

I am encouraged to return a "verification" slip, to let Mr. Gibson know
if I received the photograph intact, or if it was "scratched, folded or
otherwise damaged" in which case they'll send me another copy.  They
would also like my help to "restore strength and vitality to our
nation's space program" (i.e. $15, $25, $50, $100, $500, $1000 or
$Other)

I might like to support our Nations space program, and most of us will
agree that it's "strength and vitality" needs to be restored - but is
the American Space Foundation the right organization to do it?

I'd welcome some comments on where to send my $Other to.
