Neil Armstrong RIP

[68sixspeed]

x2 to all of the above, a true hero and example of everything good about this country. He (and Collins/Aldrin) handled the fame and weight of his role with class and dignity. Think about the things he did, He flew the X1, and later the X15 experimental rocket at close to 4000mph before the days of computerized flight controls - just getting into that beast takes a level of brass that is unreal. Then to go to the moon believing he had a 50/50 shot of even touching down ok, let alone getting back. He will be missed, and the media mis handled not just another American hero's passing, but one of the greatest.
