Cal Ripken was one of my heroes. I see Neil Armstrong and I remember sitting in front of the TV — ‘One small step for man’ — and these kids don’t know any of this. So for a sixth-grader to do the research is great. These are our children’s heroes.

I’ve been to the North and South Poles, up the Amazon and down the Nile. Or I could reach a few years further back and remind you that Neil Armstrong was a federal employee. And he was launched into space by a mission control team with an average age of 26.

The whole thing is preposterous – it’s not based on any facts or evidence. It’s like saying Neil Armstrong did not set foot on the moon. Just think how many people would need to know about something like this – me and the rest of Miss Diallo’s legal team included. It is mind-boggling
This is like saying Neil Armstrong did not land on the moon, or that JFK [assassinated U.S. President John F. Kennedy ] was shot from the grassy knoll

It’s a benefit to me and hopefully to the students I taught, not only in speech classes at PCC, but also in the classes I taught later at Forest Grove High and Neil Armstrong Middle School ...

I imagine that a large part of our government doesn’t want our ‘tranquility spot’ where Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed to be disturbed ... This place is like a national park to Americans. I’m sure there would be a rise of nationalism if the Chinese started claiming it.
