om...

Everybody remembers the first guy: Yuri Gargarin and
Neil Armstrong (poor guy flubbed his 11 words but he's still okay in my
book), but who of you out there can tell me, without a Google search,
the
THIRD man to walk the Moon?

Well, my grey cells are beginning to poof at the effort, but I'll go
with Al Bean.

bzzzzzt

hint: "whoopee, man that might have been one small step for Neil, but it's a
heckuva big one for me"...

I think it's Pete Conrad... Thank god I watched my DVDs of From The
Earth to the Moon last night ;-)

Give that man a cigar!

Actually, Terrell quoted Pete saying, in an interview 20 years after
Apollo 12, what he had *intended* to say. Pete actually said "Whoopeee!
Man, that may have been a small one for Neil, but it's a long one for
me!"
