I was sitting in the number 4 gun tower at the Idaho State Prison.  I 
had smuggled in a radio in my lunch box which was -strictly-  against 
the rules and when they said those magic words
" Tranquility Base, The Eagle Has Landed" I started yelling and 
cheering so loud you could hear it all over the old "Greystone 
hotel".  What a night!  I had never been so proud to be an American.
And I still am even after the "January Disaster".
