Jay ChladekI met Gerry at the press site for Ares I-X and indeed he is a class act. He complimented me on my Ron Jon's shuttle T-shirt (one staple of my wardrobe when I visit Florida for launches).

We talked and he mentioned he was lucky enough to see a Saturn V lift off. As such, we were able to compare notes on Saturn, Shuttle and Ares in terms of how loud they were in comparison to one another. It was the launch of the Skylab OWS and it was the ONLY time he was in Florida to watch one live. After Apollo, he got transferred to NASA headquarters in DC, but he stayed in touch with his colleagues still in Houston.
