I believe that the contractor that made the Lunar Module later sent a bill to the contractor making the= service module for the towing bill (this was of course a joke). There wa= s a big level of competition between those two contractors. Both of whom wanted to build the magnificent Apollo componen= ts. The Movie Apollo 13 is a good one to watch on the events of that succ= essful failure. --AL MARK BOSTICK wrote: > SEDONA, Ariz.
