The bad thing about this static image is that it's now several days later and yet the image hasnt moved or updated. Its like this picture is broken, cut off from the rest of the world, no longer able to get updates. Frozen in time. Likely not useful for future generations either. Poor pic. - Andrew Baron

Today in History July 20 1969 - Andrew Baron
One month after I graduated from high school in Ceres California. - Russellreno
I was 15 and eventually got NASA to send me one of my most prized possessions... an original Apollo 11 flight plan... for making some suggestion that I can now no longer remember. If you haven't seen the recent Discovery channel series, and you love the space program, you gotta watch it! - Michael Lehman
My dad had built a new Heathkit color TV in the months before this using his GI bill so he had a new TV for this event. He had all of the neighbors over to watch. I'll never forget one of the older men swearing it was a hoax, no way a man was walking on the moon up in the sky. I was 10, and I decided then that I was never going to stop keeping up with science and technology. Look where that has got me today. :-) - Charlene Kingston Kinchie
I was 14, at the Newport Folk Festval in Newport, RI. Someone had a black and white TV plugged into the car battery of VW minivan and hundreds of people watched while some great folk musician was playing on stage. It was an amazing event, people couldn't believe it was actually happening. - Dave Winer
I was -28, and busy not being born. I'm happy I could see stuff like this now... - Yuvi
Wow...I wasn't even alive. That certainly would have cool to be around for. - JMS
I wasnt born yet either, but I feel like I can relate to how amazing of a moment it was. At the time, was there any feat humans had undertaken more spectacular? I consider this to be one of the most amazing feats ever still today. - Andrew Baron

Thanks so much for this. In an instant I was back at our shore house, sitting with parents and grandparents and sibs, only a few weeks before I left them all to go off to college. What a sense of wonder and hope and possibilities that time held! Live TV from the moon - the unbelievable, seen with our own eyes. (To her dying day, though, my grandmother blamed every subsequent hurricane on those guys jumping around up there, but then she was sceptical about automobiles, too... she had seen it all!) - Linda Mills
Yeah i remember every minute, its very excited to me cos i wanna be an astronaut that day :) - Muge Cerman
Come on, everybody know it was all filmed in the basement of a Hollywood studio, don't you guys read the internet? :-) - Ruud van Wijngaarden
As a little kid, I remember being rather bitter that I had been born a few weeks too late... I really wanted to have been born the day Armstrong stepped out. Nothing in my lifetime has felt even fractionally as inspiring as the moment I barely missed. - Roger Benningfield

This is cute, but do people really like that "music?" I grew up with rap, but lately a lot of the forms it's morphing into just sound like garbage. I guess I'm just getting old... *sob* - Tad Donaghe

Kid Rock 'Steal Everything' PSA
Saturday at 5:34 am - Link
i hated kid rock up until this point. He has genuinely redeemed himself in my eyes. his music is still shitty tho. - Anthony
That is funny and he actually manages to get an interesting point accross - Andy Lewandowski
Anthony, you ever think downloading a song illegaly is like stealing a car (or anything else) or you totally missed his point. kid rock is a brick for stating this bullshit. - marcel weiss
@Marcel, You really think this is complete bull? It seems there is some validity to his commentary. I don't completely agree with it but I think it has merit. - Andy Lewandowski
What's the wealth limit for when it's OK to steal? $1,000,000? $10,000,000? - Richard Bradshaw
@Richard Bill Gates has to ask at what point is it no longer worth it to bend over to pick up a dropped $100 bill when he could be making more money in those three seconds working on a more important problem. Like I'm doing here. Oh. - Andrew Baron
There is absolutely NO validity to his point. No actual theft is involved when you copy a digital file of any sort that exists on the internet. It's only theft if some loss of property is involved. Meatspace items are finite resources - if you take one you create a loss. Digital items are infinite resources. You can't "steal" a number, which is what digital files are. This is a tired argument that obsolete industries continually trot out in an attempt to justify their lingering existence. - Tad Donaghe
Meatspace items can be secured from theft - locked, put up, garaged, etc. Some digital files, especially MP3s can NOT be secured. Attempts to protect digital "property" is fine with me, but the moment that a DRM scheme is rendered obsolete, the file it's protecting is no longer property. I "purchase" digital tracks because I can afford it. It's out of respect for the creator and to encourage continuing production. - Tad Donaghe
It's funny. I'm not sure it's meant to be much more than that. - Iain Baker
Agreed with Tad - you can't steal something that has infinite resources, like a digital file. What makes 'things' valuable are their relative scarcity. I'm not advocating not paying for digital music, but this comparison is completely bogus. The bottom line is that digital music can't and shouldn't be directly monetized like records or CDs. - J. Phil
this is great but kids with a sense of entitlement need more than this. They need a spanking to within an inch or their life because in the real world it translate to - Chris Conway
