To anyone quibbling the timestamp on this post, the Eagle landed at 02:56:15 UTC on July 21st. UTC pretty much lines up with GMT. So in BST, as we currently are, that's 3:56am.
Don't you wish we had a leader of the free world today who would stand up and say something like "I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before [a] decade is out, of halting and perhaps reversing the effects of man on the climate of the Earth."

Can't hear this enough right now either.
Sunday shorts will (might) return next week, when there are fewer momentous historical events to post about.
Absolutely with you on that wish.

Good to be reminded. I seem to forget how much I like PSB.
