Does anybody else remember the story, I believe from his book
"Always Another Dawn," that after his Mach 2 flight he was at a dinner
seated next to some famous actress such as Marilyn Monroe or Zsa Zsa
Gabor, and after the dinner she said something like, "They say he's
the fastest man in the world, but I've been sitting next to him for a
couple of hours and he hasn't made a move."



Maybe he was so fast, she didn't notice ....
