Apollo 11 Launch Tower Rescue Effort

SaveTheLUT writes "Florida Today has this story about the disposal of the last remaining Apollo Launch Tower - the one which launched Apollo 11 to the Moon in July 1969. The campaign to save the tower has also appeared on InsideKSC, CollectSpace, Space.com and there is to be a TV article about it on Central Florida News 13 channel on Monday morning. The Space Restoration Society has created an on-line Petition which has already managed to gather more than 2000 signatures to save this piece of America's history since NASA announced the disposal of the tower early last week."

    Well, we lost our two best-known ones. We'd better act fast.

    You mean that the Saturn towers - like the WTC steel - constitute criminal evidence that must be disposed of to hide a President's complicity in crime?
