Exciting Firsts...

[OCLittleFlower]

In honor of this, the first post in the History subforum, perhaps we could discuss other "firsts" in history.

First man on the moon, first to the top of Everest, first bride-show in Moscovy...whatever.

What's your favorite?

Oh, "of course", youngster!  Or by "there" do you mean on the moon? 

I can remember my dad predicting it would never happen.
