As happens so often, an unidentified gray-headed pilot-type dropped
off a box of aviation "stuff" the other day, knowing that we collect
all things aviation-related. We usually end up displaying them
*somewhere* in our aviation-themed hotel...

This box, however, is quite different, being chock-full of techical
books and doctoral studies, with titles like:

"Engineering Aspects of Liquid Metals for Heat Transfer" (published by
the Atomic Energy Commission, 1952)

"Convection of Heat Transfer in a Vortex Flow Under Pressure"
(published by Air Force Systems Command, 1962)

"Analysis of Thermal-Protection Systems for Space-Vehicle
Cryogenic-Propellant Tanks"
(published by NASA, 1962)

And so on. There are dozens of them!

Does anyone *use* these anymore? Is there any value in them? I hate
to just throw them away -- but does anyone want/need them?

you must have a little side table in each room. you know the one that
typically holds the gideon bible thingy.

well just put one of those titles in each little side table.

try to resist the smiles when they do the wide eyed pay the bill thing

if they get pinched ...hey that's another one gone :-)
