this is trying to give you an idea of where we are. we are kind of in the second inning of an economic recovery. two things i think are useful. last october, our economy recovered to our last speaker. -- our last keepeak. we are bigger than ever, but we are struggling. it is not sufficient just to get back where we were. our economy needs to grow constantly to keep everyone employed. that gives you an idea of where we need to be, and what it shows you is even though we have gotten back to where we were, we are a long way from our potential, and this is where the job market took a long time to recover. we do not have a jobs problem. we have a growth problem. you cannot force people to hire if they do not have reason to hire, and that is why doing things to get growth going, that is the best way to get a recovery in the job market. if you look back, we are seeing more signs of this. second, our recovery has been very slow. is it credible to believe the u.s. economy can speed up eventually and get back to full employment, which is around

to give you an idea.his is iran. here is tehran. this is the caspian sea. what is so interesting about the quakes today is that ahar has a population of 94,000 and to the southwest tabriz has 1.4 million people living there. the first quake just 60 kilometers from the magnitude -- excuse me. i knew i'd go metric. i'm from cnn international. that is about 36 miles. it was just 11 minutes apart from each other. within 11 minutes and only seven miles. so for the most part when you look at these quakes not only was it the time short and they're almost twins but it's basically what we look at is the depth. so shallow in this mountain zone. 6.5 miles deep. the second one only 6.9. you tlik have these at least 18 to 20 miles deep so the earth crust can absorb all this energy. they've had at least 17 after shocks. magnitude 4.5 to 5.0. it's hard to say. they're in darkness about 8.5 hours ahead of us. it's hard to say how many thousands are sleeping in darkness in make shift tents right now. it will take time. th

chow, give us an idea, what are your thoughts about neil armstrong. clearly, he was your idle, someone who inspired you before you became an astronaut yourself. >> well, that's right. i remember very clearly being an 8-year-old kid and watching the tv and listening to the transmissions coming back from the moon as the lunar module of apollo 11 approached is surface and then touched down on the moon. and i remember even as a kid thinking, wow, the world just changed and then hours later watching nooem armstrong and buzz aldrin take the very step of humans on another planetary body. that flipped the switch in my head so that's what i want to do, i want to be an astronaut. the hear of his passing today was very saddening. certainly for the entire nation and even the world. i think the apollo 11 landing on the moon was particularly important for americans but it was important for all humankind. >> was it clear to you by the time you finally met him that he reluctantly embraced this role, you know, this place in history, that he really didn't want to enjoy
