"[Young] was a charming and erudite man whose obvious professionalism and dignity shone through. We chatted for ten to fifteen minutes and it was a mesmerizing experience to actually be discussing things with someone you admire so much. He had time for people and showed wonderful patience when people asked him, for I'm sure the millionth time 'what was it like to be on the moon? '." - Michael Wright |

"...to my astonishment he called me forward and in front of all these dignitaries presented me with a picture of him saluting on the moon with a note on it reading ' To Michael Wright - Thanks for a wonderful stay in Scotland' signed John Young NASA Astronaut. I couldn't have been more thrilled." - Michael Wright |
