Armstrong's Words

There is still research into and debate about exactly what Neil Armstrong said as his first words while standing on the Moon-- as if that were consequential.  Did he say one small step "for a man," or "for man?"  The most recent analysis of the transmission suggests he got the "a" in there, but his Midwestern American accent had him slurring words a bit.

It's amazing what some people will fuss and fight over.
