Why would Titusville need a Shuttle when it has actual launches to bring in tourists? Or do you share the certainty that Bush's blundering of the Constellation program will bring an end to manned launches from LC-39? At least SpaceX will be launching people from LC-40 within the next four years.

And why would Texas want a Shuttle? Johnson has their Saturn V, and they have a few chunks of Columbia. If they wanted a shuttle they should have been more careful with the ones they were flying.

IMHO they should send one of the Space Shuttles on a tour of the newspace companies (SpaceX, Sierra Nevada, even Orbital, and yeah, ULA), as a prime example of what *not* to do with their new rocket designs.
