Whenever I read stuff like this I'm always filled with a bit of awe and bit of jealous regret: awe that we went to the moon on more or less hope and sweat, and jealous that we've never done that in my lifetime, and we're not planning to. Maybe Mars :)

As one of the waiting, I just wanted to say that you've been really great at updating us on the various speed bumps along the way. While I'm on my tippy-toes with excitement to see what the finished product looks like, a goodly portion of that enthusiasm is grounded in the knowledge that you've been pouring every effort into making it something very special.
