It still takes my breath away. I'd happily place my right arm on the table.
But of course, it takes more than that..

I was in Quebec City and we were all at my Grandmother's house. All
the English was in HUGE subtitles and all the dialogue was in
"recreated" French, complete with the beeps.

I didn't actually hear Armstrong say "one small step for man.." until
years later.

My Father was a bartender at the Ramp Restaurant just off Route 22
near Newark Airport. It was a pilot hangout -- including Buzz Aldrin
(after Apollo 11).

Apparently at that time Buzz was a very regular customer.
