    Tom Wolfe lived a good, long, productive life. He was writing about early astronauts & discovered test pilots doing the dangerous work & not getting recognition until The Right Stuff. I wrote the NF-104 part for him. @JeffBezos @BetteMidler @nytimes @CNN @NewYorker #TheRightSTuff

        You are correct, Chuck. I was unaware of you and your colleagues until I read TRS. It became my favorite book. May Tom rest in peace.

        Same here. One of my favourite books and films. Apollo 13 completely ripped it off.
