1. Congratulations!

So you can attest that it wasn't just a big hoax?

[DavidDvorkin]

2. I have a short chapter on that

Short answer, no.

Longer answer: No, but with more words.

3. It would have been an awfully short chapter

if you had just limited it to "No!"

4. I was tempted!

5. I know someone who worked on the shock absorber/leg landing system

I don't want to say the name publicly, but it's a friend's now deceased grandfather. The guy was a freaking genius mechanical engineer.

6. That's very cool.
