Ahh that is great. You can visit the Neil Armstrong Museum near Wapakoneta OH. It's just a small tribute, but I think: how brave did he have to be?

Happy Anniversary serious space exploration. I still have high hopes!

Quayle stumbled in response to a question about his opinion of the Holocaust. He said it was "an obscene period in our nation's history." Then, trying to clarify his remark, Quayle said he meant "this century's history" and added a confusing comment. "We all lived in this century, I didn't live in this century," he said.
