It could be true.

Today, according to my calendar, is "Wright Brothers Day."  It seems to me that this day should be more widely celebrated than it is but I will admit that December is a pretty busy month so I guess I understand.  Here's a related fact that I just learned today.  When Neil Armstrong walked on the Moon, he had a piece of fabric from the left wing (actual not political) of the 1903 Wright Flyer along with a piece of wood from the airplane's left propeller in his pocket." I am assuming he had permission to take these items with him and wasn't involved in a bit of vandalism.  Personally, I'm interested in this special day because, according to my mother, our family is distantly related to the Wright brothers.  My mother's mother's maiden name was Wright and she was a second or third cousin.  So there you have it, our family's only known clain to fame.  Although, now that I think of it, we are actually related to Frank Lloyd Wright also.  My mother received a tiny little bit of an inheritance after he died.  So I guess we have two claims to fame, but all in the same family.  I should really do some research someday.
