: What is it that you find so "cool" about Ronnie Ray-gun's Library?

It sits up on a hill in Simi Valley with great views...

The 707 AF1 (don't know the s/n) is there, all dressed up, shiny, and well displayed. Great mural depicting all the
different AF1 aircraft...

A Sikorsky Marine 1 helicopter is there, and a F-14 out in the yard.

Very good multi-media displays, appropriate for the 'great communicator'. Really good stuff about the wall coming down
and the 'end' of the cold war...

I didn't even like the guy, and I was impressed. Hard to imagine how many of whos dollars made the place...
