One must search single words on the .pdf, it interpolates spaces which prevent efficient phrase-searching. But "bitch" returns multiple sons-of-bitches from all concerned. I don't find any F-bombs. Gene Cernan was particularly nervous. It's funny, but one does have to seriously wonder at a certain point about how the "culture of cussing" may erode morale/lower civility among a crew. Wanna go to Mars? This sort of human psych stuff has to be hashed out, too.
