Yeah, saw that countdown. *rolls eyes* Whatever, man. Most people have no idea how hard he worked to get where he did get, which was about a month's training shy of being in space. That means tests of the mental, physical, math, science, mechanics, engineering, etc. sort that he'd had to take to even qualify to be trained, let alone the training itself. Well, I knew the score and have wanted to say at least that to him, if nothing else. But the entire night was just unreal. What an opportunity.
