    Clearly, the doc isn't with us any longer, but wanted to throw that out there anyway.

    Also today -- not at all related, I don't think -- the 39th anniversary of the first lunar landing.

    (Sad thing is, I've got a minor in history and if I wasn't so busy/tired, would have never have even posted that. But, dude, I know I've got HST's birthday right -- so that's somethin.)
