| In the video, Ray Bradbury's time sequence on events seems to be a bit skewed. Mars landing not that long ago? Surely I've read that he was given the French Medal over a year ago. But then, there must be poetic license here. But then again, there's a New Year at hand. And everything makes sense somehow!

Yeah - the medal was given sometime in the late Spring, I believe. Poetic license, indeed. Give him a little slack on the time frame, though.
