Thanks, Lather, for the reminder. It makes me sad, too, those were the glory days. Well, putting the module on Mars was spectacular, but not as much because no humans landed. I realize that we shouldn't send men to Mars until we can figure out a way to get them back.<g> Hmmmmm. Maybe I am just PMSing.

I want to take a moment to remind everyone that today at 4:17pm Eastern standard time is the 30-year mark since the first moon landing. And 10:56pm marks the anniversary minute of the first footprint in the regolith.

"Houston, ah - Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed!"


Yeah? I remember watching it on a tv at a gas station deep on Cajun country as I gassed up my wonderful old VW van. Probably for 33 cents a gallon. And I wanna take a moment to remind everyone it is my birthday, so send money. And presents. Nubile lolitas. Absolutely no Durians.
