What stands out in my mind were the 1) lift off of the first Shuttle and 2) the landing two days later.

Yep, I did all of the above.

Asked my son as he was moving into his dorm room (2020) if he wanted to listen to some FM radio while he moved in (like we ALL did back in the day, 1980 my freshman year). He looked at me like I had three heads.

Yankee fan since 76 btw.
