Is this because of your definition of hero or because you do not think it took heroism to do what he and others did?

"Greatest hero" is a subjective term, of course, but the point remains that the personal fortitude and skill went in to his efforts.

A salute to a guy who did amazing things.

I like the implications of Gallentians being punched in the face by walking up to a Minmatar as they so freely use another person's culture as a fad.

I certainly regard him as a hero. This is sad.

He lived for 82 years though, which is not so bad.

Yeah, if you have to go, go at the age of 82 after having walked on the fucking moon.

He was from Ohio.

Just felt the need to say that.

RIP, and thanks for helping our state be known for something other than race riots and burning rivers.
