@BeschlossDC @vbspurs Have the AP year in review book from 1967...timeline with commentary is chilling.
@BeschlossDC @vbspurs Nice story about streets named for the Apollo 1 astronauts in Amherst, New York:http://amherst.wgrz.com/news/news/70366-space-age-mystery-amherst-street-names …
@AnthonyBialy The Grissom sign was taken down. And Buffalo industrial decline takes yet another victim. :(
@vbspurs If you watch the news clip, there's a happy ending: they named a different street after Grissom.
@AnthonyBialy Ah, I hadn't, just read the accompanying piece. Thanks for pointing that out!
@vbspurs I think it's their way of getting people to watch the clip. :-) The streets are near the Walmart I used to occasionally patronize.
@AnthonyBialy Walmart in Buffalo. Imagine it.
@vbspurs Imagine decent salt-of-the-Earth types getting good deals, yes. :-P
@BeschlossDC TRUE heroes!
@BeschlossDC sad, sad day. I remember that as a 10 yr old. those guys were heroes. Apollo was such a great human endeavor.
@BeschlossDC thanks for remembering the men of Apollo One.....

@BeschlossDC Thank you for remembering the Apollo 1 heroes.
@BeschlossDC @Limeylizzie that was a terrible night.
@BeschlossDC My uncle worked at the Cape when the astronauts perished. We used to go watch the rockets grow up. It was heartbreaking.
@BeschlossDC Apollo 1's deadly fire helped save the lives on Apollo 13 http://www.coolgus.com/bobmayershitdoesntjusthappen.html …
