Neil Armstrong, the first human on the moon, has passed away at age 82, as a result of complications from heart surgery.
In many ways it seems like only yesterday I watched the event on a small black & white TV set in a basement in Eugene, Oregon. I checked the streets: not a single car moving, nor a pedestrian. The entire world watched. I am sad that he is gone. It was a great accomplishment, an astounding accomplishment, and even though he never took any personal credit for it, he was one of the certifiable heros of human history.
If you remember where you were when man first landed on the moon, please tell.
