I was six years old, enjoying my first summer vacation from school,
taking small steps and giant leaps of my own (although for me, the
expectations were modest).  

I watched the grainy black-and-white on late-night TV in my parents'
room, periodically sprinting downstairs and out into the yard to squint
up and imagine that I might be really sharing the experience.

An extraordinary moment, no doubt.  

But I hear it was all faked.  'Least that's what they say on the
internets.

Do you remember what you were doing 40 years ago today? It is one of
those very vivid days in my memory. I am sure that is the same for most
of you
