Thanks for posting this. Brought a tear to my eye. I wish it could have been Kennedy to make that phone call.

It could be Mars, it should be Mars but when we can't even get funding to repair a bridge, how are we supposed to embark upon something so grand? I do think it's what this nation needs, a giant goal that we can all rally behind. Something that symbolizes our collective abilities/intellect. I'm all for it. In fact, the government can raise my taxes a full percent if they allocate that entire percent towards THIS end.
