Watched a documentary on the Jewish channel this evening, which tied President Lincoln, to the Moon Landing! 
Well, it turns out, during the Civil war, Lincoln took a ride in maybe the first Hot air balloon, & saw how that could be used in War. That led to Dirigible, to the Air Plane, Jets, Rockets, & the Moon landing. Cool!
One of the station's Fact commercial, was, in 1955, Congress wanted to protect the American worker, & passed the Minimum Wage Act, at $1.00 per hour! 65 years, & were up to $7.25. Not much Progress there!
