Nice!!!

Very cool that they are honoring it after all these years. Good on them and here's hoping the Keller's have a great time.

Awesome and I am sure the kellers are going to have the time of their lives. Very cool of the planetarium to honor the promise made over twenty years ago.

The Planetarium is being an awesome sport.

The arrogance of the Kellers however shows here:

$1:

"I really don't know what they'll offer us," he said. "We'll have to see."

I mean, seriously, why would you even try?

Acknowledging the bizarre circumstances, Keller said he wasn't sure whether the voucher would be honoured.

"I really don't know what they'll offer us," he said. "We'll have to see."

Nothing arrogant there. I would try to see what they were willing to come up with too. Arrogance would be if they insisted on the 50 even tho that's no longer possible, and made a big stink about it or tried to sue.

Great PR for the business. As for the family, you never know if you don't try. I would have assumed they would not take it but no harm in trying as long as you are ready to accept a no for an answer.

You also have to remember, $500 back in 1982 was a pile more maney than today, like they said...

$1:

The voucher values the evening at $500. Adjusted for inflation, that comes to almost $1,100 today.

No expiration date, I'd redeem it too. Although they did buy it at auction and they don't say what they paid, but still, the Planetarium offered it, they bought it, it's a done deal.

[wildrosegirl]

Yep. No expiration date - they have to honour it.

I think it's great. It sounds like the planetarium no longer offers that service so the staff will likely have a ball putting this together.

I've a copy of DOS 3.2, I wonder if I can buy Windows 7 for $45.

I'm glad the coupon is being honored. I t's the right thing to do.
