That's not my department!
I cannot believe this statement is true:
Michael J. Neufeld, the author of "Von Braun: Dreamer of Space, Engineer of War" (Knopf; $35), acknowledges that "hardly anyone under age forty" knows his subject's name, even though America's moon shots owed a large measure of their success to him.
—Thomas Mallon, "Rocket Man: The Complex Orbits of Wernher von Braun."
If nothing else, doesn't anyone still listen to Tom Lehrer?
