Around 1952, I was 5 years old. My 10 year old Brother knew everything. He belonged to a gang, not a bad gang, just a bunch of local kids.

One day we were standing around an old barrel which was burning tar. The question came up: Will man ever land on the moon.

Joe thought for a few seconds and said, “no”.

That was it, I knew we would never land on the moon.

Interesting - I was born in '52 and knew we would land on the moon from watching The Honeymooners ....;-}
