Have they seen the movie, "October Sky"?

We HAVE “October Sky”. They’ve seen it.
The difference is: the main character lived in the Age of Von Braun, when America wanted to do things in space.
We live in the Age of Obama...where most of America wants to do nothing.
Sorry...I’m a bit on the bitter side this morning.
