Edward or Mike?

At JSC everybody calls him Mike, not Edward.137.82.201.190 17:50, 9 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

He is the first member from Generation X to fly in space and is the only "Shuttle Era" US Astronaut to fly in space, but not on the American Space Shuttle. Taken from NASA Bios (www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios) and doing the math.

I don't see how this could be included because it is WP:TRIVIA and is conjecture from the NASA source. Also the wiggles thing is pure trivia. -MBK₀₀₄ 03:41, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Not conjecture- a fact. I have done the math. There are people who track these things. Who are you to police opinions?

Wiggles was acting too. Perhaps Fincke wants an acting career. Perhaps it is not trivial that he makes the effort to educate students about the space program. It is not up to you to determine "triviality". no?

Please tell me how you would like to see the citations. Be nice
