Remembering Neil Armstrong

This picture from National Geographic probably represents most homes on July 20, 1969 - kids on the floor, crowded around a black and white TV trying to figure out the fuzzy images.

From PBS:
Neil Armstrong, the first man to set foot on the moon, died Saturday, according to a family statement. He was 82 and lived in Cincinnati.
Armstrong had undergone a heart bypass surgery earlier this month to relieve blocked coronary arteries. The recovery seemed to be going well, according to the New York Times, and his death "came as a surprise to many close to him, including his fellow Apollo astronauts."
