Let's here it for Yahoo news. Do people really concern themselves with this thing?
The answer is yes, but I don't think anyone misunderstood the sentiment. You don't need to be a MENSA candidate to know what he meant. Now they say they have proof that he really said to NASA "....for _a_ man". I'm glad we felt the need to use man hours and resources to clear that up, because it really troubled me. ( note underlying sarcasm) Hopefully the recounts of the exploding spacecraft were grammatically correct too or else we could have a major language crisis at NASA.
This is an example of smart people who need better direction for their talents.
A side note - At least the investigators were interested in proving that Armstrong himself may have made the statement correctly, but the transcriber erred. However, if it were that big of a deal to Armstrong, he only had well over 20 years to correct it. I don't remember hearing there was a problem.

I didn't even know there was a question about it, although the _a_ does change it a bit, who cares. Yer right.
