Like Father, Like Son

The latest "space tourist" has launched for the space station, and I've taken particular note of this one because Richard Garriott is the son of an astronaut. He paid for his trip like the previous tourists, of course, and seems to have made the money for it through having developed a long series of computer games. That, though, has prompted a reflection or two about how there must be plenty of people out there who thought at some point "Wait--'Lord British' was the son of an astronaut?", as opposed to me, who through reading National Geographics become more familiar with the second Skylab and first Spacelab missions than with any of the "Ultima" games, realised "Wait--Owen Garriott's son programmed computer games?"
