Neil Armstrong Remembered

Tomorrow marks the first anniversary of the death of Neil Armstrong, commander of Apollo 11 and first human to set foot on another world.  Armstrong died of complications following heart surgery.

Armstrong is remembered as a test pilot's test pilot, an extremely cool operator in pressure situations, which is largely why he got Apollo 11.  He's also remembered as a quiet, solid Midwesterner who made time for people and refused to cash in on his enormous fame and place in history.  If we are looking for role models, we could do much worse than Neil Armstrong.
