He was never comfortable with the fame that his one small step and one giant leap earned him on July 20, 1969, but I guess now he won't have to deal with that any longer.
I fell asleep, down in our rec room, waiting for that historic event to happen, back when I was 6 years old. To this day, I think that if I'd been even just a couple of years older, I would've made it! I do remember the excitement of the time, though: it seemed as though walking on the moon proved that we were destined for great things, as a species. Too bad we've spent so much of the ensuing 40+ years failing to live up to that.
Anyway, here's to Neil!
