I am as sentimental as the next NASA fanboy, but the remnants of the pad are not high on my list. I think saving the vehicles are a much higher priority. The loss of the Columbia, the first orbiter (ignoring the Enterprise glider deal) was truly tragice, the loss of life aside. That should've been in the Smithsonian.
