Default Neil Armstrong saying

I have recently been told that while on the Moon, Neil Armstrong made the
comment " Good Luck Mr Gorskey" Does anyone know if he really said it and
what is the meaning of the comment ?

....Some newbies should really know better than to post a query on
something as goofy as this before doing a google on what's been posted
before.

It's crap. Just a story with no basis in reality or truth.

I was reading in the bathroom when I ran across an item written by
"Rod Stevenson" on Mon, 6 Oct 2003
23:30:11 +0000 (UTC), which said:

Is it that time of year again?
