I sent this email
I was told that I could contact you in regards to free tickets to Kennedy Space Center at Port Canaveral, FL. My daughter which is 8, mother, my daughter's other grandmother and I are going down there September 25-30 for a cruise for my daughter's 9th birthday and thought this would be an excellent learning experience fro my daughter. She is home schooled so any opportunity I can find to further her education in a fun atmosphere, I am very interested in.
Thank you so much for your time in this matter and for what you are doing for out state. I know dealing with the current flooding situation here in Nashville is a very stressful task. Thanks to the good Lord above, we were not affected in an way.
Sincerely,
Jen Coss
This is the reply I got from his office (not him)
Jen,
Thank you for your recent email about shuttle launch tickets. If you could please let me know the launch and how many tickets you are requesting I am happy to place the request. There is a limit of 5 tickets per request.
NASA gives out tickets in first come, first serve order and does not notify us until one month prior to the launch. If tickets are granted you will hear from me and then they will mail you a packet. I have your address and will give this to our NASA liaison.
Once I get all of the information from you and submit the request I will also be able to notify you if there are currently no tickets and you are waitlisted.
Thank you and look forward to working with you.
Sincerely--
Allison

Huh?
Why would she think I wanted to see a launch (exept for the fact that they HAVE public viewing for launches)?
