    Joseph-

    Neil Armstrong’s famous quote of “One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind” caught him grief for many years, due to the gramatical error of omitting the “a” before “man”.

    Armstrong always insisted he’d said “a”.

    A recent analysis of the “cleaned up” recording appears to show that Armstrong was correct.

    This question is for my son! It’s Obama. I think when his mother (Ann Dunham?) remarried Soetoro, they moved to Jakarta (Indonesia?) for a few years where he was known as Barry Soetoro.

    jf02, most of the questions here ARE political in nature. (Although the oilam’s political viewpoints are out of sync with yours, thats no reason to refrain from discussion…) 🙂

    here’s a tough one:

    list all 50 states with capitols!!!! winners wins a prize!!!!!!

    #1078048

    Peter Minuit was the purchaser of Manhattan, for @ $26 dollars wort of chotchkes.

    It wasn’t a bad deal for the Indians who sold it, since they were actually a Brooklyn-based tribe!

    The Manhattan-based Indians were ripped off.

    This is akin to my selling you LaGuardia airport for only $50 – a great deal for both of us, if you’re allowed to keep it.

    Most history books omit this.
