Holy Cow!! I just discovered that the Blue Moon Tavern (my customary watering hole during my college days) rates a Wikipedia entry: Clicky.

I recall someone once saying that "on any given night there are more PhDs in the Blue Moon than on most college campuses."

Actually, one of my drinking buddies at the Blue Moon was science fiction writer Jerry Pournelle, before he moved to California and started writing science fiction (The Mote in God's Eye, Lucifer's Hammer, others….). I can honestly say that Jerry and I were going to the moon regularly, long before the Apollo program….

P. S. Okay, Firth, what the hell does this have to do with public art?
