I read elsewhere that he hated being called a hero, and preferred being called an engineer.

What's wrong with having engineers as heroes?

Neil Armstrong has been described as an intensely private person, and I was amazed when a friend sent me the Web address of a four part video interview he did recently. One that I had never seen before.

I am even more amazed that Discovery Channel or similar hadn't picked up on it. Perhaps they have by now. I seemed to be telling people about it, and it appeared no one was aware of it's existence.

The interview was done by Australian accountant Alex Malley. Google plays a very significant part in this story.

RIP Neil Armstrong
