Not sure, but he once hosted a show called "In Search Of" that tried to explain inexplicable mysteries. ------------------ I got nothin'.
Well, Earl Mitchell, Sr. is credited with inventing the moonpie. But I don't know if he was Lincoln's cousin. If he was a cousin, there is distance between them, though, since Mr. Mitchell didn't invent the moonpie until 1917 and was born well after Lincoln died. Kennedy didn't start NASA, though. It was created in 1958 during the Eisenhower Administration. Kennedy did did give a famous speech saying NASA should strive to put a man on the moon before the end of the '60s, though. ------------------ Houston Sports Board DFW Sports Board
