Thanks, Dave - I needed that!

"...and a happy new year. Let's hope it's a good one, without any fear."
 
Excellent.... How times have changed eh?
Thanks for the link
 
I was only 1 when this was happening. Must have been strange seeing a new world on TV for the first time.
 
meh... my first year of college "...on the good green earth".
 
I have been practicing dentistry for 38 years. Maybe one day I will get it right.
 
I was 5 years old and my brother was 7. We were driving to our grandmothers for Christmas and I remeber looking out the car window the whole way trying to see the spacemen! I still remember how excited my grandfather was when we got there. He met us at the car going on and on about how we had gone to the moon!
 
I was 16 and watched it at my girlfriend's house because they had color TV!

I recall that my great grandmother (b. 1879) was still of clear mind at the time and simply did not belive that people were actually on or near the moon. She refused to accept it, said it was a government trick.

I heard other stories of such people. I guess when the only means of transportation was a horse when she was young, it would be pretty hard to accept that men were walking on the moon!

Thanks for the memories, terriphil! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/yesnod.gif
