I remember sitting up pratically all night watching the crappiest television feed ever and not giving a damn about it...it was history before the Nation's/World's eyes. 8 people (S-Father, Mom, the sibs and me) barely breathing as we tried to make out Neil's figure in the B/W shadows and listening to "Uncle Walt" trying to do an astronomical-play-by-play of that historic moment...a human being stepping onto another terestrial body. And, beating the commies to the moon...What an American Story!

(Yes...I hated them then and I detest the ba5tard5 now. What a surprise.)

R.I.P. Neil.
