Thank you so much for your wonderful program, website and store. I
found your site looking for an airplane shirt for a young girl and I found so
much more. Thank you so much for providing this to all girls myself
included. We have just sent her name to the moon thanks to your eZine, I
would have never have heard of that program on my own. My daughters
love of planes started young, around 2 and is growing right along with
her. She is currently sleeping with a playschool plastic plane filled with little
planes instead of stuffed animals. Her dad and I started out not knowing a
lot about aviation two years ago and have enjoyed learning with her. She
wore one of your shirts on her birthday trip to Pensacola to see the Blue
Angels, who were so wonderful with all of the children and signed
autographs (we don't wash that shirt!). They took the time to chat with
them about flying, I was impressed and would recommend both the
museum and your web site to anyone interested in flying!!!
Thank You!!
Warmest Regards
Kristen and Zoe (Brandon, Mississippi)

Blog entry, with the following
from the author, Av8rdan:
"Just thought I should thank
you for providing the material
that gave my blog the largest
boost of traffic in months...
almost twice the # of unique
visitors today as most days. I
think this validates (in a very
small way) what you are doing
with GWW since it appears so
many people want to read
what you have to say."
