I have started to mail the signed items back to everyone after Billy did a great job on handling them. Most of the USA items have been mailed and the non-USA ones are going out today and Saturday.Please verify that I sent the right items and when they were returned to you. The money was used to bring him out and he was great as the Aldrich Astronomical Society's Starfest guest and helped them out in their quest to raise awareness and funding for a new outdoor observatory in Massachusetts. Thank you all for helping them out. So who should be next on our want list? |

Doug Hurley... for purely selfish reasons as he's the one I need to complete my 135 collection. |

I'll second Doug Hurley, he's a tough one to get, even though his brother is my insurance agent. |

Nice choices but they have to be retired from NASA. |

Just my two cents: I prefer astronauts that either don't come to the East Coast or don't do many appearances or aren't reachable by mail (considering the intent in asking for who OGL should next bring, if I'm reading this right, is for OGL to not only conduct a private signing but also to make money for their endeavors.) I don't think too many people are going to participate in a signing where the astronaut is available TTM, or does appearances where one can get their autograph in-person. And if they have some ties to the Boston/Massachusetts area to make it enev more enticing for them to come - "Hey, while you're here, you can root for the Red Sox/visit your old elementary school/take a look at your old flightsuit at such and such a college" - I think that might make things a bit easier, too. |
