Cool stuff Ken!!! I've been to a couple of launches, however the one I liked best was the first night launch of the shuttle many years ago, to understate it, it's VERY impressive. You can't really properly describe it, you just stand there in awe. What was neat about the night launch was the frogs, gators, crickets, etc. went dead silent just as the rumble and sound hit us and they stayed quiet for at least two minutes after the shuttle was long gone. If you have never been to a launch it's worth going, sadly not too many left.
