#CoSoWriters This arrived in the mail. I guess I are a righter now. π
Note ... I ordered the paperback version. They sent me a beatup version of the hardback. π€
#CoSoWriters I shared with the wife's granddaughter a photo of my copy of "Turabian" from 1973. She had no idea what the typewriter font balls are.

Rummaging on my reference shelf, I found my "Turabian" from college, printed in 1973.
The typewriter font balls really date the cover.
Anyone think I should get a new version? π€£

Also ... Come to find out that the FCC has a Zombie Twitter account for space licenses, @FccSpace. Who knew.

Having worked there for ten years, I've always been interested in the history of the #KSC Visitor Complex. Its original name was the VIsitor Information Center (old-timers called it "the VIC.")
It opened in 1967. This photo is October 1975. The first expansions have begun. Two rockets have been planted in the Rocket Garden. Segments of the Saturn IB sit in the parking lot, awaiting assembly. The Orbit Cafe is under construction in the upper left.
