Met this man[edit]

I had the pleasure of meeting this gentleman between STS-85 & STS-98, courtesy of my brother and a trainer that used to work at NASA. My brother and I were already planning a visit to JSC with the trainer, but unbeknownst to me, my brother had more planned. The trainer, my brother and I were having lunch with a bunch of people. In walks Robert Curbeam and sits down at the table with us to chat. He seemed like a nice guy and all. Problem was, at the time, I didn't know who he was! I thought he was a trainer too. Once he left, my brother asked how I enjoyed meeting an astronaut. I just about had a coronary! A dream come true. Why do I write this little story here -- to let everyone know what a nice person, and pardon this ... how down to earth, Robert is for spending time with a space fanatic like me. Such NPOV statements don't belong on the article page, but Robert deserves some accolades. --N35w101 22:48, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Math error[edit]

I found an error in the calculations for the time Mr Curbeam spent in space. He has loged 37 days 14 hours 33 minutes and 23 seconds in 3 shuttle flights. I have corrected the error on the article page.--74.220.175.126 (talk) 14:51, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
