"The universe is probably littered with the one-planet graves of cultures which made the sensible economic decision that there's no good reason to go into space--each discovered, studied, and remembered by the ones who made the irrational decision."

re: #3 Randall Gross

Where were you on that day?

At IBM HQ in NY watching mankinds giant leap on TV. Later that year I met Mr. Armstrong at a nightclub in Bangkok when he was on world tour. I shook his hand and got his autograph. One of the other IBMers was more resourceful. He ask the bartender if he could buy Mr. Armstrong's brandy snifter when he was finished with his drink. The bartender sold it to him.

RIP Mr. Armstrong
