Message to Edit: HTML is ON UBB Code is ON Smilies Legend	Originally posted by Robert Pearlman on 03-01-2008 09:59 AM Canadian Press: [URL=http://canadianpress.google.com/article/ALeqM5jJoymQOGAJrQ_XmxsvYImLIFwftQ]Astronaut Dave Williams tells Canadian kids to look to the stars[/URL] <BLOCKQUOTE>[i]Before astronaut Dave Williams hangs up his space suit on Saturday, he's got one piece of advice for Canada's youngsters: Never, ever, give up on your dreams. "I was seven years old when I dreamed of becoming an astronaut and I never thought it was going to be possible," he said in an interview late Friday with The Canadian Press. Now the 53-year-old is retiring from active duty with two space shuttle missions under his belt and the record for longest spacewalks by a Canadian. "Somewhere out there in Canada right now could be the next generation of astronaut that could be participating in missions to the moon," he said from Houston, Texas. "Somewhere out there in Canada right now there might be a seven year old that might be participating in those first missions to Mars."[/i]</BLOCKQUOTE>
