This is a rather enlightened forum, so perhaps his aside wasn't
necessary here. However, many people in this forum were born
after Apollo landed on the moon. For them, that is ancient history.
And for many of the more ethnocentric Americans, nothing done by
some "damn rooshin" matters anyway... "after all, they claim to have
invented everything from fire to atomic power!"
In most forums, Adam's qualifications would have been appropriate,
if not necessarily believed.
