[meteorite-list] Edgar Mitchell, Moonwalker dies at 85

[Tommy]

  Yes it's a sad thing. Kids today don't realize how much of a feet it 
was to do what those guys did. And that over 400,000 people were 
involved with making it happen.  Those guys had balls of steel.  I was 
glued to the TV every time a rocket went up starting with the Gemini 
missions as a little kid.

   Sadly, young people today are more worried about stupid Facebook 
posts. Makes me sick.

Regards!

Tom
